According to its own Website [1] :Foodaware: the Consumers’ Food Group, has been set up to coordinate the broad UK consumer movement’s work on food safety, nutrition and standards. Our mission is to give UK consumers a strong voice on food policy by bringing together the organisations that represent them. We also consult and support the UK consumer representatives on food related committees, and further the public understanding of science.

We have the benefit of a contract from the Food Standards Agency and a Secretariat provided by European Research into Consumer Affairs, a European consumer organisation with UK charitable status. Foodaware has developed from the Food and Agriculture Working Party of Consumers in Europe. Our core members are consumer, women’s and enforcement organisations, which also contribute time and expertise to our representations.
