Why join us?
To support our charity's work!
This involves:
- championing Real Bread and the people who make it, while challenging obstacles to their rise.
- working towards everyone having the chance to choose Real Bread, and removing barriers to making better-informed buying choices.
We invite everyone who shares our beilefs and values to become a Campaign supporter to help us work towards our aims.
Rather than a membership organisation or trade association, the Real Bread Campaign is a project run by the food and farming charity Sustain.
Your dough helps us to
- Work towards everyone having the chance to choose Real Bread.
- Champion the independent bakeries at the hearts of our local communities that help to support more jobs per loaf and keep our high streets alive.
- Lobby for updated and improved composition, labelling and marketing standards.
- Push for greater honesty and transparency from all producers and retailers in the meantime.
- Share the potential benefits of sourdough and other Real Bread and call for more research.
- Promote our belief in therapeutic benefits of bread making.
- Work to help people having a tougher time than most of us to benefit from Real Bread making
- Challenge obstacles to the rise of Real Bread.
…and carry on the rest of our work finding and sharing ways to make bread better for us, better for our communities and better for the planet.
