🚀 We've just launched our latest #BrokenPlate report!

It highlights the fact too many people are struggling to access healthy food and much of what is marketed to us is damaging our health and the planet.

@sheinazs @HughFW @christineperymn @DingyButt @pmnogue Oooh love it! Can't wait to meet your hens!

The stage is set for an interesting couple of hours with the Welcome Hub network, discussing the most pressing food issues for refugee and asylum seeking communities in Gateshead, and what action we can take collectively. Thanks @JulianPrior for organising and facilitating.

🚨 ICYMI: 1.4 million emergency food parcels were provided by food banks in our community in just 6 months.

This isn't right. Everyone should have enough money to afford the essentials.

[Gateshead Food Partnership @FoodGateshead]

A lovely video showing the vital work @GFoodbank do, not only in providing emergency food but a listening ear, financial inclusion support, and a glimmer of hope.

A brilliant event yesterday at St Chad’s with Bensham Bites: a room full of ideas, knowledge and enthusiasm for growing, storing, preserving and distributing food. Excited to see what's next. @DingyButt @sheinazs @christineperymn @pmnogue @BLGateshead @The_RHS @ComfreyProject

[The i Paper @theipaper]

Can’t stop snacking? It’s not your fault – but you can do something about it

@DoctorChrisVT explores how ultra-processed food is designed to make us want more, in his new BBC show Irresistible: Why We Can't Stop Eating
