The government has provided unprecedented levels of support for workers and businesses across the food supply chain to protect against the current economic emergency.

This includes the Dairy and Fisheries Response Funds provided to support our farmers and fisherman, the Eat Out to Help Out Scheme to back our pubs and restaurants, and the Job Support Scheme to protect jobs and livelihoods right across the hospitality sector.
