A vibrant and friendly team, indeed! Take a look if you are passionate about access to good food 👀.
No two days are ever the same - come join our team and play a part in tackling food insecurity and improving access to good food in the city. Friends, please help us share this role! @ellenloudon @hilaryerussell @CharlotteHardm3 @etc_ellen @AlchemicKitchen @FoodPlacesUK
Looking forward to stopping by this one on the beautiful weekend coming. Good food looks so different to each of us and can change depending on the day or epoch. Right now I love anything anyone else has cooked for me ;).
What does good food mean to you? Drop in on Saturday 20th May 12-3pm at The Black-E for Good Food; Our Food - the launch of a travelling exhibition of photographs and stories celebrating the relationship between food, culture, identity feedingliverpool.org/good-fo…

#RightToFood Today marks the end of the #HealthyStart paper voucher scheme - last year our poorest families missed out on £70million to spend of healthy food. We must not stay quiet about this @UKSustain @Food_Foundation @sajidjavid @IanByrneMP @DavefcKelly @churchpoverty
Kicking this off very soon. Looking forward to discussions around engagement and data science! Stay tuned for some highlights ;)
Soon (24/3): Join us (@Jmswats & Elisa Jones) for a roundtable discussion on data science + engagement! We are interested in exploring how PGRs & ECRs can use engagement activities alongside data science methods. Register here: eventbrite.co.uk/e/stakehold…
Soon (24/3): Join us (@Jmswats & Elisa Jones) for a roundtable discussion on data science + engagement! We are interested in exploring how PGRs & ECRs can use engagement activities alongside data science methods. Register here: eventbrite.co.uk/e/stakehold…
After three short presentations, we will shift to a roundtable format to discuss:
> motivations of engagement
> barriers of engagement; and
> how we may engage effectively.
This is open to anyone and especially PGRs and ECRs who have undertook or are considering including participatory and engagement methods alongside more traditional data science projects. Come to share and learn! This is part of @NWSSDTP #methodsx initiative @MethodsNW

NEW report led by @hlambiemumford @rloopstra in partnership with @foodpoverty_uk @UKSustain sets out lessons from response to food vulnerability during #Covid19 around the UK, including areas with @FoodPlacesUK partnerships and/or @FoodPowerUK alliances. sustainweb.org/blogs/feb22-p…
Such essential framing for both research and practice! This is one of the core underpinnings of our work modelling the food environment. It helps us think more widely about access inequalities, too. @moflaher @markalangreen
We use this phase ‘food access’ a lot in our work @feedinglpool @goodfoodlpool - this slide from @etc_ellen really helpfully summarises some of what we mean by it! #GoodFoodLiverpool

My seven year old daughter heard me talking about the research I've been doing on food banks. She asked what food banks are & I explained that some people struggle to afford food. She said "well why don't they just have a money bank & give them money instead?". It's a fair point.
