Podcast: Fowl play? How is the UK's appetite for chicken impacting health, sustainability and animal welfare?

How is the UK's insatiable appetite for chicken impacting our health, sustainability and animal welfare?

To explore the subject we're joined by Anthony Field, Head of Compassion in World Farming UK, Myrtle Gregory, Research and Policy Officer at Eating Better, and Food Ambassador Mirzan, for a special podcast episode chaired by Rebecca Tobi, our Head of Food Business Transformation, in what is our 200th episode!

They touch on issues such as the role played by chicken shops on our high streets, the broader impact of intensive chicken farming, chicken's role within industrial livestock systems and the government's animal welfare stategy.
