For the first time British Food Fortnight is focusing in particular on public procurement: the NHS, Ministry of Defence, prison service and all Government departments are being challenged to join the national celebration and put British on their menus during the Fortnight.

“British Food Fortnight is an ideal catalyst for finding new suppliers and sourcing more sustainably. Hospitals, schools and staff restaurants putting British on the menu during the event have proved it is possible to source locally.”
Mark Holmes, ADAS, who helped Sheffield Teaching Hospitals source locally as part of the White Rose Red Meat Initiative.
