☀️New blog alert 🚨
Happy weekend! We have a new blog post up from Tania & Lily, discussing child food insecurity in the UK.
Pre -and post- Covid research suggests that food insecurity in children often remains unsolved due to a lack of long-term vision and policy-making 1/2
🥳A big well done to our @Marta_Crispo (@ScienceShef @sheffieldgeog)!
She's published 2 new papers. 1 covers UK urban horticultural soils & HMs. The other looks at soil microcosm experiments.
Co-authors include: @dunkie_c @jilledmondson25 @MiriamDobson https://t.co/6bf7aASxQy
This week marks the start of Organic September?
It’s a month-long campaign which aims to raise awareness of organic products, and growing your own!
Our residential staff have worked hard with our adults to help them grow their own fresh produce, like the veg in these pictures!
Despite a chilly summer, so called exotic foods CAN be grown in London & other urban areas in England.
This can reduce food miles, enhance nutrition & connect people to culturally appropriate food.
