Latest news – November/December

Policy Influencers Network Group – Thursday 17 November

Our recent Policy Influencers Network Group #5 in September focussed on Food Hubs. Participants from across the UK heard from Nick Weir at the Open Food Network about recent developments and advice on how to join the Open Food Netwrok’s on-line platform.

You can watch the recording of this session, and lots of other UAC events on https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCXp0NTfplLmmvTWTYXSEvCQ

PING sessions are free to attend, and are for council officers & councillors at regional and local levels, for food partnership colleagues and interested academics: all are welcome – we convene online to create an inclusive informal space to learn, connect and be inspired.  Please feel free to forward this invite to your colleagues.  

Future PINGS will feature 

  • Peri-urban farming – to bring food production back to the people
  • New Voices & Diversity – in the people, products and process of a localising food system 

Please contact us if you’d like to attend any of our events or if you’d like to be added to our mailing list.
