Love Parks Week celebrates our parks and green spaces, reminding us of the countless benefits they bring including supporting biodiversity, wellbeing and community cohesion. Research shows that trees and green spaces can also lower temperatures by up to 5°celsius.

When we listen to producers and farmers, what we hear is clear; fairness breaks down in three key places: 💜People - providing rights and safety at work 🌍Planet - protecting the land producers depend on 💷Pay - earning enough to live well and plan for the future
