Sometimes you end up in places you never imagined.

Had the honour of collecting the Street Food award on behalf of, Kara Baird, at the World Food Photography Awards. The award was presented by the wonderful Gennaro Contaldo.

Grateful to have been part of it.

Apparently I’m the face of food in #RealBritain today..

[Dominic @SingleDadSW Watters @SingleDadSW]

Never imagined that raising my daughter on this council estate would one day become part of an academic textbook.

Delighted to have contributed a chapter to Poverty in the UK: The Lived Experience @routledgebooks 📚

Food in Real Britain! Today’s @DailyMirror featuring the Citizens Advisory Council’s work on food deserts. Really pleased to have contributed to the piece. Thanks to Ros Wynne-Jones for shining a light on an issue that deserves much greater attention. #RealBritain #FoodDeserts

On my council estate, @dominos isn’t just takeaway — it’s one of the most accessible “treats”.

But when the least healthy options are the best value, that has its consequences.

At the Domino’s AGM tomorrow, I’ll be asking why?

@RosieDuffield1 @StagecoachSE @canterburycc @ArchbishopSarah Thank you Rosie. I really appreciate it. There are urgent issues around access to fresh food on #LREstate that reflect wider structural challenges. I’ll email this week and look forward to sharing lived and research insight. #FoodInsecurity #FuelPoverty

[Dominic @SingleDadSW Watters @SingleDadSW]

Just wondering why out of the whole bus station our screen is yet to work?! @StagecoachSE #LREbus #22

[Rosie Duffield MP @RosieDuffield1]

@SingleDadSW @StagecoachSE @canterburycc @ArchbishopSarah Sorted! (With Joel, Stagecoach boss).

[Dominic @SingleDadSW Watters @SingleDadSW]

@RosieDuffield1 @StagecoachSE @canterburycc @ArchbishopSarah Grateful Rosie and Josh. The lack of access to fresh food on #LREstate reflects deeper structural issues around affordability, access and stability. I’d welcome the opportunity to share lived and research insight to help inform this #foodinsecurity

[Dominic @SingleDadSW Watters @SingleDadSW]

@RosieDuffield1 @StagecoachSE @canterburycc @ArchbishopSarah They can’t “silently” cancel our buses no more #thankyouRosie

[Dominic @SingleDadSW Watters @SingleDadSW]

@RosieDuffield1 @StagecoachSE @canterburycc @ArchbishopSarah At 10:53 this morning I mentioned to a station supervisor that you would be here on Friday and will ask why we have the only not working screen.. and back at 14:43 💥🖥️ 🚌 #LREstate #Grateful #PoliticalPower

[Rosie Duffield MP @RosieDuffield1]

@SingleDadSW @StagecoachSE @canterburycc @ArchbishopSarah Will do, thanks for the nudge.

[Dominic @SingleDadSW Watters @SingleDadSW]

@RosieDuffield1 @StagecoachSE @canterburycc @ArchbishopSarah Thank you Rosie. There is a history of Stagecoach failing the residents of London Road Estate so kindly please let me know if you make any progress. 🚌

[Dominic @SingleDadSW Watters @SingleDadSW]

@Botticelliwoman I deeply hear you! That is something I am tackling both in policy and academic spaces, whose knowledge is valued. It is painful to know that we are often only extracted from when it fits their agenda. Then I’m back in my estate where nothings changed.

[Victoria Derbyshire @vicderbyshire]

‘It feels like an attack on the poor’

Dominic Watters is a single dad on Universal Credit. If the government decides not to increase benefits in line with inflation, he’d receive £600 less a year (acc to @resfoundation ). He tells @BBCNewsnight he doesn’t know how he’d manage

A sustainable food system?

That depends where you stand.

In my estate, you can get blueberry vapes — but not blueberries.

I’m building something different with @FoodisCare.
