Food in North Lincolnshire

Food in North Lincolnshire aims to improve accessibility to healthy, affordable food and to transform our food culture to one that improves health and wellbeing, environmental sustainability and the local economy.   

The Food in North Lincolnshire Partnership is the responsible body for leading the development and delivery of the Food in North Lincolnshire (FiNL) Pledge, and Action Plan.  The partnership has representatives from the voluntary sector, local authority, the local hospital trust and food retailers.

Currently the Partnerhsip is chaired and supported by North Lincolnshire Council Public Health with a vision to support the partnership to become independent in the future. 

The contact is: Ms. Sajda Shah, Public Health Manager
