The aim of FDF's Diet and Health Committee is to work constructively with Government, regulators and others to help find solutions to the complex issues at the heart of the diet and health challenge here in the UK.
Key areas of work identified by the Committee this year include: positioning FDF
members as
proactive partners for engagement and future work with Government (including
devolved countries),
robustly showcasing the progressive actions of FDF members to key stakeholders
enabling
consumers to lead healthier lives and delivering on a range of collaborative
industry-wide projects,
including reformulation of products in support of public health goals and
promoting best practice in
workplace wellbeing.
