Let's Eat Balanced

Our Let's Eat Balanced campaign highlights that British beef, lamb and dairy are natural sources of vitamin B12, which helps to reduce tiredness and fatigue.

The campaign builds upon the success of our previous We Eat Balanced campaign and champions British beef, lamb, and dairy.

The aim is to protect long-term consumer attitudes towards naturally produced British red meat and dairy and reinforce how they help form part of a healthy and sustainable diet.

Showcasing British farmers

We want to tell people about the story of British farming and reassure consumers about Britain’s world-class production standards.

Farmers have already been telling the positive story about British farming on social media, but we need more of you to get involved.

We are, therefore, looking for beef, dairy and sheep farmers to share their story as part of our Let'sEat Balanced campaign – would you like to get involved?

Share your story

Talking about the campaign, Silas Hedley-Lawrence, a farmer from Oxford, said:

“The Let's Eat Balanced campaign, funded by our levy, educates consumers about the importance of red meat and dairy in a balanced diet, using evidence-based research.

It promotes our positive farming practices and showcases the high quality of British produce. It helps us tell our stories and reach more consumers. As a farmer, I am proud to play my part."
