Leeds Food Strategies & Case Studies
The Leeds Food Strategy sets out a vision for the future of how we produce, consume, and dispose of food across the city.
Food and Climate
Global food systems account for up to one-third of greenhouse gas emissions. We’ve partnered with others to take action and significantly reduce the impact of our food on the planet by the 2030s.
Veg Cities
Veg Cities is a national campaign encouraging people in urban places to grow, cook, sell and save more vegetables.
Research
FoodWise Leeds engages in research addressing the challenges to health, sustainability and social justice which face our city and its residents.
Food Resilience Toolkit
Our toolkit offers practical help to organisations offering food aid provision to people experiencing food insecurity.
Healthy Holidays
Since 2018, the Healthy Holidays programme has been providing children living in poverty with good food and engaging activities during school holidays.
Healthy Start
