Vegpower looking for support of Simply Veg campaign

08 Aug 2022
The cost of living crisis has seen 49% of families reduce their vegetable purchases with 25% making less home cooked food. Vegetable retail sales have hit a record low.

To try and counteract growing concerns that this may escalate, Vegpower are launching 'Simply Veg'.  The campaign will go live in September and the team at Vegpower are looking to get the support of the school catering community to help push the message. 

The campaign will offer lots of expert support around family meals, home economics and even child food psychology, it aims to help parents and carers to serve more sustainable, healthy and affordable food that children and families will love.

Vegpower are asking school caterers to help promote the campaign to parents and carers by encouraging them to sign up to their support groups at https://vegpower.org.uk/contact/. You will also be able to order free posters to use in your schools and around your communities, these resources will be available soon.
