  • 8 June 2010 No 17
    8 June 2010 No 17 Hi, Help make Grove Wood a Local Nature Reserve On Thursday June 10th from 4pm, Bristol City Council's Cabinet will be discussing whether Grove Wood should be declared a Local Nature Reserve and whether they should consider compulsory purchasing the woods to secure its future for wildlife and public enjoyment. A Local Nature Reserve designation would ensure that Grove Wood was managed for wildlife, public enjoyment and educational use - just what the Snuff Mills Action Group have been calling for since 2008. You can help make this happen by: 1) Emailing [email protected] no later than noon on Wednesday June 9th [sorry about the short notice] stating why you think the Council should declare an LNR and buy Grove Wood Title your email: Grove Wood - Cabinet Discussions or something similar 2) Asking to speak at the Cabinet Meeting on June 10th - you need to request this in the email you send the Council 3) Joining Snuff Mills Action Group outside the Council House on College Green on Thursday June 10th at 3.30pm to show how much you want this to happen - make and bring banners! Check the Snuff Mills Action Group blog for more information at http://snuffmills.blogspot.com The report to cabinet can be seen by following the links for the 10th June Cabinet meeting at www.bristol.gov.uk/meetings There was also an article in today's Evening Post, see http://tinyurl.com/24cvo6l ------------------------- Area Green Space Plan Consultation As I mentioned in my last update, the AGSP consultation is starting on Monday (14th June).

  • Policy Framework for Good Food & Catering Procurement Context
    Appendix A: Policy Framework for Good Food & Catering Procurement (i) Context: Bristol has made a commitment to work towards a healthier, more sustainable food system, one which reduces food poverty, supports local food businesses and reduces the environmental impact of the way in which we produce, consume and dispose of our food. Bristol spends £millions on food and catering services annually and every public sector setting, from leisure centres and hospitals, to public open spaces, should have a food environment designed so that the easy choices are also the healthy ones (Gov.uk 2017). Bristol City Council is a key partner in helping Bristol become both a healthier city and a Gold Sustainable Food City. Through the development and adoption of a Good Food and Catering Procurement Policy, Bristol can use its significant buying power and its control and influence over contracts, concessions and licences, to encourage healthier and more sustainable food consumption and drive local economic development. Good food is vital to the quality of people’s lives in Bristol. As well as being tasty, healthy and affordable, the food we eat should be good for nature, good for workers, good for local businesses and good for animal welfare (Bristol Good Food Charter) National and local policy drivers include: Childhood Obesity: A Plan for Action (Dept. of Health 2017) Strategy, Policy & Commissioning for Diet (National Institute for Clinical Excellence (2015) A Plan for Public Procurement: Food & Catering (DEFRA 2014) PHE (2017) Strategies for Encouraging
