<strong>GS1</strong> <strong>UK</strong> and<br />

The Food Chain<br />

Feeding the fight against HIV<br />

<strong>GS1</strong> <strong>UK</strong> has always chosen to support charities<br />

through various fundraising efforts. Our staff<br />

are currently working alongside a fantastic<br />

charity ‘The Food Chain’ which exists<br />

to ensure people living with HIV can<br />

access the nutrition they need to get<br />

well, stay well and lead healthy,<br />

independent lives. We chose The<br />

Food Chain because we could see<br />

a clear link between our work in<br />

improving food supply chains<br />

and those who need access to<br />

good, nutritious food in order to<br />

improve their quality of life.<br />

The charity delivers meals and<br />

groceries, offers cookery and<br />

nutrition classes and communal<br />

eating opportunities to people<br />

living with HIV and their dependents.<br />

The charity delivered its first meal<br />

on Christmas day in 1988 having been<br />

established by friends of people living<br />

with HIV. Today, we work with the charity to<br />

raise money, get involved and support these people<br />

struggling to access good food.<br />
