Councils have role improving access to good food

The Growing Healthy Communities Food Security Toolkit offers a range of solutions for councils to support the supply of healthy food in communities, whilst staying within local government guidelines.

Community groups can use the toolkit to advocate for affordable, healthy, safe and sustainable food sources.

The Toi Te Ora toolkit covers four spheres of influence to improve food security: Collaboration, Community Capacity, Supportive Environments and Advocacy.
