Why become a Supporter?

Slow Food UK has developed a Supporters’ Scheme tailored for organisations that are interested in working with us and engaging with the UK food industry sector that supports nutritional, sustainable and locally produced food. As a Supporter of SFUK, your organisation will benefit by being associated with a non profit organisation whose ethics, passion and professionalism are recognised by many in and outside of the food industry.
