I went for a wee walk to process my first ORFC today. It connected so many dots and I’d go again in a heartbeat. Now back at my desk thinking about community participation and land use, keen to meet others working on this in Scotland!

It’s been fantastic to be part of the team working with 345 citizens throughout #TheFoodConversation this past year. People across the UK want change and the movement is growing.

It was incredible to watch citizens from #TheFoodConversation take the stage in Westminster on Tuesday to share their experiences, highlight important questions, and make a collective call for change to the food system. So much passion and clarity.
