Eating Better
Bristol Good Food 2030 Eating Better goals and priorities are confirmed and are summarised as below. These priorities are being shared with all community groups listed in the Bristol Good Food directory. If you are from an organisation helping to make Bristol’s food system better for communities, climate and nature, please get in touch if you would like to be included in the Bristol Good Food 2030 communities group mailing list. The below priorities inform the Bristol Good Food 2030 Action Plans and Framework.
- Learning on sustainable, healthy diets and the development of skills to cook, grow and choose good food are consistent and present throughout the education system (ages 2-18), supporting young people to make healthier, greener food choices.
By contributing to the review of the Bristol Healthy Schools Award.
- Inclusive, community-based opportunities for developing skills on sustainable, healthy diets, cooking, growing and choosing good food are available and taken up across the city supporting citizens to make healthier, greener food choices.
By increasing the city’s educational offering around healthy eating through Ambition Lawrence Weston and the Food Leaders programme.
- Catering, hospitality and retail settings citywide offer healthy and climate friendly diet choices, through the adoption of certifications such as the Bristol Eating Better Award (BEBA). Certification standards are continually raised with an increased uptake of highest-level awards. Uptake of nutritious and climate friendly food increases in these settings.
By improving and continuing to improve BEBA.
By improving support mechanisms for parents so that more children are provided with good nutrition in the first years of their life.
By improving support for breastfeeding parents who go back to work and ending follow-on milk advertising on billboards.
