Tackling food insecurity (beyond meeting immediate emergency needs) is identified as a priority in Cornwall and Isles of Scilly Leadership Board’s vision document: The Cornwall Plan 2020-2050.
A multi-agency Cost of Living Crisis Strategic Group, chaired by the Director of Public Health and bringing together Cornwall Council, Citizens Advice, Department of Work and Pensions, SFC, the CFAA and others, was set up to report on and monitor progress against the priorities identified by a Civic Lantern exercise. Sustainable Food Cornwall led the workstream on access to food and community growing.
