| Summary: |  Speech by Richard Wakeford, SDC Commissioner and Chief Executive of the Countryside Agency. The speech was written for the visit of the Seaside Pienza Institute, Highgrove. The SDC has a food work programme, encouraging a more sustainable food chain for all food consumed in the UK. This would involve new approaches to local agriculture which, in turn, would help to create sustainable communities. |
