Why it can only work as one piece of a jigsaw of interventions to tackle diet-related ill-health

A Food Research Collaboration Policy Insight

By Victoria Williams

In this Policy Insight, Victoria Williams draws on her experience of piloting and assessing community food initiatives to examine the proposed Community Eatwell programme. This paper examines why Community Eatwell needs to be part of a larger ‘jigsaw’ of policy interventions, and must avoid duplicating or undermining existing food policy interventions.
