Why do you support the Future Food Movement mission to radically upskill the food industry and leadership teams of today and tomorrow?

Business has a critical role to play in making the urgent step change we need to see in climate and health. We can't do this without informing, educating and empowering our colleagues at every level. It’s vital we upskill our teams to help us all on the journey to produce affordable, nutritious, and sustainable food.

What do you think it will take to shift the industry on sustainable diets?

It is abundantly clear that it will take a collaborative step change not seen before across the industry to really see the speed and scale needed to deliver a healthy, affordable net zero diet for all. We all have a part to play.
