Overview

The UK government’s forthcoming horticulture sector growth plan is a major opportunity to transform what we grow, what we eat and how we build a more resilient food system.

This couldn’t come soon enough. With growers continuing to face soaring energy costs, policy uncertainty and fragile supply chains, join us for a timely webinar on what the promised plan must deliver. At the heart of the discussion is a vital question: how can we support British growers to increase production and reduce the impact of overseas disruptions on the UK’s food supply?

Our panel of experts will dive into the policy options on the table for improving access to healthy and nutritious food for everyone, from tackling food deserts to addressing the dominance of unhealthy products on supermarket shelves.

Join us as we discuss all this and more, allowing plenty of time for audience Q&A.
