- 2. The Challenges in Bristol 17,000 children and young people in Bristol are obese and a further 11,000 overweight. Multi-generational loss of skills means that heavily processed convenience food and takeaways are the norm for many people. 10 out of 35 neighbourhoods in Bristol have no greengrocer. Many high streets, especially in the most vulnerable neighbourhoods are dominated by empty shops, poor quality fast food and off licenses as a consequence of supermarket monopolisation. An estimated 40% of food produced in the UK is wasted along the supply chain The UK imports 90% of fruit and 60% of vegetables

Notes de l'éditeur
- Health The ‘Health & Wellbeing Strategy’ adopted October 2013 includes a section on food and identifies a set of key aims. A team of public health professionals are responsible for implementing these as part of their existing strategic and outreach work. Parks & Green Spaces The UK has statutory allotment provision for individuals wishing to grow their own food. Bristol City Council has considerable land and property interests in and around Bristol. Some of this has been leased at minimal rent to community groups and organizations including social enterprises for food growing. Parks officers have introduced food growing in demonstration beds and among formal flower beds and have been active working with community groups to identify suitable places for community orchards. Procurement Work is underway to raise the standard of sustainable procurement to reach Soil Association ‘Silver’ catering award Waste Management Changes to the city’s waste collection has substantially reduced the amount of wasted food by providing weekly kerbside food waste collection while reducing residual waste collection services to fortnightly. Campaigns have encouraged home composting.
- Bristol City Council works formally and informally with a wide diversity of partnerships towards more sustainable food systems: Food Policy Council: diverse group of professionals working towards sustainable food systems locally, nationally and internationally Bristol Food Network: grassroots activists and sustainable food professionals at centre stage of sustainable activity in Bristol The Green Capital Partnership consists of key city stakeholders and organisations working towards a more sustainable city who have directly supported food projects through ‘Community Challenge’ awards, organised food related events and keynote speakers in ‘Big Green Week The Soil Associations ‘Food for Life Partnership’ was piloted here and operates on a ‘whole school’ approach.
