The Veg Cities site will close permanently on 1 January 2025.

Veg Cities is changing but our commitment to healthy food and more veg is not. We started Good Food Local, a new initiative to help local authorities prioritise good food and commit to action on a breadth of food issues including healthy food environments. Join the movement

Include access to food in planning

Councils

Map and include access to healthy food in planning.

Mapping access to healthy food against of transportation routes, income, health data, proximity to schools and other factors and including access to food in the Local Plan, Supplementary Planning Documents or other planning policy are important first steps for getting good food into the local agenda.

Please join Veg Cities to access all the downloads for this action.

Veg Cities is working with councils across the UK to help people grow, cook, sell, serve and save more vegetables.
