·         Deliver role-specific training to key staff in schools (training provided if necessary)

·         Deliver in-person engagement sessions and online workshops to support schools to achieve their action plans

·         Work closely with Southwark Council’s School Food Team to support their aims through the Southwark School Meals Transformation Programme
