Sandra Reeve was the event organiser for an online meeting 'Food Resilience in Dorset' hosted by the Dorset Climate Action Network on 10th July 2023. Dr Rebecca Sandover of University of Exeter and Peter Samson of the Landworkers Alliance were stimulating speakers and following this well-attended meeting Sandra has arranged a follow up.
For those who want to 'catch up', the speakers slides are here:
And here is a link to a video of the Zoom meeting:
Sandra writes: As we heard that evening, to become a member of Sustainable Food Places could well be a significant step for Dorset as a county. In their networking role, Dorset CAN have decided to follow this up with a little bit more research, to see if there is sufficient interest and support countywide to make sense of Dorset applying to become a member in March 2024.
If you are interested in being involved at any level or finding out more about it, please come along to our next Zoom
meeting hosted by DorsetCAN: Sustainable Food Places : who are they and should Dorset become a member?– on Wednesday August 30th, 5.00-6.45 pm .
Alex Ward from Sustainable Food Places will be there to answer any questions we may have. Do let other food contacts know about it, so that we can have a wide representation of interests.
