Food for Life Charity Wins Sustainable City Award

Food for Life, based at Bhaktivedanta Manor UK, has received high recognition. Food for All helps the homeless and disadvantaged through serving free meals and educational services, and the City of London Corporation made it a winner of it's "Green Oscars" at the annual Sustainable City Awards last week.

Food For All (as the charity is called in England) won the prestigious Sustainable City Award for the Access category as the judges were very impressed with its comprehensive provision of free nutritious meals to over 700 homeless/disadvantaged people six days a week using eco-friendly practices.

Hundreds of organisations nationwide entered the competition demonstrating the support for environmental practices. Food For All was one of the only charities to win the award amongst large multinational companies such as BT and BSkyB and was commended for making a positive contribution to serving the disadvantaged in London. Nick Andrews, one of the judges, stated:

"On behalf of my fellow judges, I can say that your prize for winning was very well deserved and recognises the great efforts and contributions you make as a team - this being against some very strong competition too." Anjana Ghosh and her mother Krishna Vallabha are pictured receiving the award on behalf of Food For All which was presented by Green Tsar Zar Goldsmith, editor of The Ecologist.
