Abstract

This talk will be an overview of the project to create a sustainable food hub for the Cambridge area and the impacts it will bring about. As well as being a food distribution centre, the Food Hub is being created with the intention of being a ‘working laboratory’ for testing new innovations and for studying the impacts of a Food Hub on the health of the local populace. The talk will include a report on the outcomes of the ‘Good Food for All’ workshop; a scheme designed to address food poverty and health inequality locally. The talk may help identify opportunities for research collaborations.
