Our key messages are 

1. New poll unearths the real food crisis in Britain. Almost half of people (49%) say they’ve cut back on the quality of food they buy because of financial pressures.

2. Food is just not working for everyday people. Four in five (80%) believe healthy food is something that everyone should be able to have, yet only 8% think it is affordable to most people.  

3. The public back greater government intervention to ensure everyone can eat healthy food. In this election year, the British public sees healthy food as a fundamental duty of the Government - 68% say it is the Government’s job to make sure healthy food is affordable amidst increasing financial pressures and a worsening food environment. 

4. The next phase in the UK’s biggest conversation about food has begun, bringing together citizens across all four countries to join in-depth workshops and deliberation designed to determine solutions.
