British Food Fortnight: The campaign that puts British food and farmers in the spotlight
Listen now
Description
Over 20 years ago Alexia Robinson established the campaign, Love British Food. It was in response to the horror of foot and mouth, and a way to give British farmers the incentive to carry on. Now, 22 years on, the campaign is stronger than ever, and Alexia has managed to forge relationships with key areas of society such as care homes, caterers, prisons and most notably the NHS. The campaign spearheads the movement to get people closer to the supply chain and, hopefully, help tell the story of how food links us all. https://www.lovebritishfood.co.uk/british-food-fortnight-2023
