Food for Life Scotland aims to make good food the easy choice for everyone. We focus on the power of public food and its potential to have a positive impact on health, the environment, and the local economy.
To achieve this, we work in partnership with public sector catering teams.
Our key focus is on getting more fresh, sustainable, local food onto public plates across Scotland. We are funded by the Scottish Government to work with local authorities and other public sector bodies to achieve the Food for Life Served Here award for their meals services. As part of this we provide bespoke support across menu and recipe development, data and spend analysis, and supply chain development. There are 15 local authorities in Scotland that hold the Food for Life Served Here award at Bronze, Silver or Gold for their school meals services, as well as universities, colleges and workplaces.
