Fair Food

In a Fair Food System, good food is a right and not a privilege. It’s one where everyone has access to eat nutritious, culturally appropriate food every day. This also means the people who grow, sell, and prepare our food are paid a fair wage.

Find out how we’re creating a fair food system for Leeds. Visit the Leeds Food Aid Provision Map, find information about Healthy Start, the Healthy Holidays programme and other initiatives across the city.
