In June 2023, the Food SIG developed a position paper on ultra-processed foods. The final paper, which is based on in-depth research and discussions with key partners in this space, can be viewed here.

Food and COVID-19 

This discussion paper, written in 2020, provides an overview of the FPH position on Food and Covid-19, the related issues, and recommended measures. COVID-19 added to the mix of environmental, social and economic challenges already facing the food system in the UK, and the Faculty viewed public health as central to this process.
