Working Towards Better Food for Southampton: The Southampton Food Partnership’s first operational year
The Southampton Food Partnership (SFP) is an inclusive partnership of public, private, charitable and community sector members. In September 2024,
we obtained strategic support from leaders across the health and care system,
and from across political parties, to formally adopt a partnership approach
to healthy, sustainable food through Southampton City Council’s Health and
Wellbeing Board5. This endorsement of the Southampton Food Partnership
energised us to build a long-term successful collaboration. We meet
bimonthly, providing infrastructure to enable continuity, creating new
connections, driving collaboration and regular communication. Our gatherings
include agenda setting, project updates, peer learning, and dedicated space for
members to connect. In October 2024, we became a member of the Sustainable
Food Places scheme6 which gave the SFP an official webpage7 and access to a
network of other food partnerships and a host of resources and expertise.

Abstract
The Southampton Food Partnership (SFP) is an inclusive partnership of public, private, charitable and community sector members. In September 2024,
we obtained strategic support from leaders across the health and care system,
and from across political parties, to formally adopt a partnership approach
to healthy, sustainable food through Southampton City Council’s Health and
Wellbeing Board5. This endorsement of the Southampton Food Partnership
energised us to build a long-term successful collaboration. We meet
bimonthly, providing infrastructure to enable continuity, creating new
connections, driving collaboration and regular communication. Our gatherings
include agenda setting, project updates, peer learning, and dedicated space for
members to connect. In October 2024, we became a member of the Sustainable
Food Places scheme6 which gave the SFP an official webpage7 and access to a
network of other food partnerships and a host of resources and expertise.
