This year, Sustain's annual report assessing action on food in London replaces and combines their previous Good Food for London and Beyond the Food Bank reports. The new report looks at what London councils had in place before Covid-19 that enabled a good food response, their emergency food response to Covid-19, as well as recovery planning to ensure a good food environment and access to food for all.

The report finds that where strong foundations were in place that predated the Covid-19 pandemic, by and large this enabled a stronger, more resilient food response to the pandemic. The research also found that the conditions created by the pandemic have, in a significant number of cases, engendered new positive action on food, especially in terms of new partnerships between councils and the voluntary and community sector.
