All-Party Parliamentary Food and Health Forum
According to its website:
- Associate Parliamentary Food and Health Forum (FHF) is an all-party independent forum for the exchange of views and information on food policy in the UK Parliament. Our objectives are to stimulate well-informed debate as a result of a greater awareness of food policy's significance and to explore and contribute to knowledge, policies and information on food policy, diet and health.
