In collaboration with Food Sense Wales, we have co-produced guidance for local authorities in Wales on how they can work with Local Food Partnerships and communities to improve local food systems.
We know that without urgent action to increase access to local, healthy and sustainable food, Wales will not be able to achieve the well-being goals of the Well-being of Future Generations Act.
In our Future Generations Report 2025 we have called on each local authority to develop a local food resilience plan in collaboration with Local Food Partnerships and Public Services Boards and change our food system for the better.
To support local authorities in creating a healthier, more resilient future, this guidance outlines good practice, case studies and resources around the food related policies which local authorities can control and influence. This includes guidance on governance, planning, procurement, access to food, the promotion of healthy diets and food waste.
