An introductory guide to the food system

Now the government has been elected and new MPs sworn in we've produced an introductory guide to the food system, explaining how it is failing us and why it matters to help policymakers navigate the complex challenges they are grappling with.

Whether you're new to the job, or have years of experience, the publication sets out why working on food in this parliamentary term will allow you to contribute to a policy agenda that will deliver tangible benefits to your constituents.

If you're concerned about the health service, the economy, climate change, education, children, communities or inequalities, this guide explains why the food we eat is a crucial and often overlooked part of the solutions our society needs.
