British Food Fortnight 2023 is set to be the biggest and most popular yet with communities and organisations across the country making plans to take part. The two-week celebration aims to provide locally sourced and nutritious food for millions of people, both delivering value for money and supporting local businesses.

Commenting on the 2022 edition, Alexia Robinson, said: “This year’s event is the culmination of months of hard work by catering teams across the country. We set out to inspire and enable public sector caterers to put more quality British food on school and hospital menus and the hundreds of schools and many NHS Trusts taking part show how much has been achieved. 

“With the Government potentially introducing new buying standards that will require the public sector to ‘aspire to sourcing 50% of its food locally or to higher environmental production standards’ the activities taking place during British Food Fortnight are an important foundation to achieving this.”
