Hey I'm Caroline, A down to earth, happy grateful, straight to the point person, A mum to three amazing children with a career of children's entertainment and coffee under my belt, I love making wedding/birthday cakes, producing some cool window art, nails, hair, crafts, I love anything DIY from laying floors, decorating, making furniture and beds, there's not much I can't do, I cherish every second of it and I do it all with a huge smile, whilst feeling blessed despite having serious health issues. I also home-school my youngest child who has learning difficulties and is ASD. Not bad eh!
I would love to make a difference all round where food is concerned but especially around schools and families who struggle but also those of us that do home-school or have special needs and spend more time at home. As a child I couldn't make a big difference, or speak up, but having a very poorly parent meant I went without, surely someone could have helped, right?! Well as an adult I can help and I can push to ensure other children and adults alike don't go without, but we are louder together! We can push for healthier options and better quality. Alone, I know I can make a difference, as I have recently, imagine what we can, will and do already achieve, together!
As an engineering student deeply passionate about addressing food waste, social injustice, and supporting the less fortunate, I am committed to making a meaningful impact as a food ambassador. My motivation stems from personal experiences with food insecurity, driving me to advocate for change and ensure equitable access to food for all. With a strong belief in the power of innovation and community engagement, I am dedicated to implementing solutions that promote sustainable food management practices and foster inclusivity. Through my advocacy efforts, I aspire to create a world where no one goes hungry and where food is valued, respected, and accessible to everyone.
The reason why I decided to become a Young Food Ambassador is so I can be apart of changing our nation’s health by inciting change to our flawed food system especially in more affected areas that cheapen the food quality.
Before joining, Lucy worked in London’s largest food redistribution charity – The Felix Project – managing a capital-wide volunteer programme with 1,000s of volunteers. She also set up and developed Felix’s equity, diversity and inclusion work, and feels passionately about advocating for social justice both within and outside the workplace. Lucy is an avid volunteer (especially when food is involved)! While completing a MA in Gender & Development at the Institute of Development Studies, she started a healthy eating programme at youth homelessness day centre. This time cemented her understanding of the social inequities surrounding access to nutritious food in the UK.
I’m a mum of 2 children under 2. I live in Cornwall. I want to dedicate my free time as a Food Ambassador because I know firsthand how much of a struggle it is to be able to afford formula milk, fruit and veg, not for 1 baby, but for 2, to push through and put others first and go without.
