Description

Come and join us and other interested people on the 20th July 2017 in a conversation held in Open Space to work out the practical priorities for tackling food poverty in our Borough. Please forward to your networks.

We need your help as there is a lot to consider:

Dealing with and preventing the crisis of “no money, no food”.
Low income households accessing good quality and enough food.
Improving the quality and amount of the food around us - our environment and our health.
Building on what is already going on in our high streets, communities, faith organisations, charities, businesses and our public services
Reaching those people at risk.
What should progress look like and how can we make it last?

Open Space is a method used all around the world to hold better, more productive meetings, where the people who come set the agenda for themselves on the day. Most of the time will be spent in flexible small groups, focusing on the topics people suggest. Everyone who comes will prioritise the top ideas coming from all the discussions and will get a report of the whole day’s work. The top priorities will be the starting point at the follow-up meeting the next morning, July 21st. Feel free to join this to support the planning around the actions. The event will be led by Sheila Marsh, an experienced Open Space practitioner short video

Come and make your voice heard in the conversation about how to make food poverty history in Tower Hamlets! Refreshments provided with lunch at 13.30 at the Open Space and 13.00 the follow up event

This event is a key step to producing a food poverty action plan for Tower Hamlets and is supported by the Greater London Authority with Sustain providing examples from other towns and boroughs. The plan will go to Tower Hamlets Health and Wellbeing Board in September 2017.
