Cardiff has been named one of the most sustainable food cities in the UK. In 2024 it became only the fourth place in the UK to be awarded Gold Sustainable Food Places status.

The award recognised the success of the city’s joined-up approach to building a sustainable and healthy food system. One way you can support this joined-up network – whether as an individual, group or business, is to make a pledge to support our mission. Click on each pledge below to find out more about the actions you can take. Whether you do something big or small, it all adds up.

I will cook and eat for better health

Whether it’s taking steps to learn more about what makes up a healthy diet; including more fruit and vegetables in your meals; or committing to cook from scratch more often – small actions can quickly add up to make a big difference to our health.

I will cook and eat to protect the environment

Everything we eat has an impact on the environment, but there are ways we can use this connection between planet and plate to make a positive difference here in Cardiff.

I will support local food businesses

Shopping with local businesses keeps the money you spend circulating in your local community. It’s a good way to support the economy around you, to help out small independent businesses and to find food that’s locally grown or produced.

I will connect with my community through food

The food we eat has a huge impact on life in Cardiff – not just on people’s health, but on communities and businesses, farmers and food producers, and the environment too

I will help Cardiff’s Good Food Movement to grow

The bigger the Good Food movement in the city is, the more powerful it becomes in being able to make change. So, we need everyone to get involved to help us grow.
