Food Rebels
Local Food Links were recently involved in the TV Programme called Food Rebels, this looked at everything they do and the many projects they are involved with. Including providing hot lunches to school. As part of this, the camera crew came into our school to film our lunchtime as the last part of the process having documented the souring of ingredients and preparation of the lunches. The episode can be viewed on the following link, Episode 4.
