This week is #LonelinessAwarenessWeek and while loneliness is a natural emotion and a typical human reaction to when our social needs are not being met, recent studies highlight if we don’t address those needs, it can start to affect our mental and physical health and can have a significant impact on us as individuals. 💡
James Crampton, Corporate Affairs Director for HEINEKEN UK, shares more on the impact of loneliness, what we're doing about it with our charity partner Marmalade Trust and how small talk can improve lives. 👇

There is still much stigma attached to feelings of loneliness, despite it being a risk factor for poor mental and physical health. Many of us are still uncomfortable talking about our own feelings of loneliness even though feeling lonely is completely normal.

Celebrating True Togetherness on Sustainable Gastronomy Day
Today, on Sustainable Gastronomy Day, we're thrilled to celebrate the power of food and drink to connect us and inspire the joy of #TrueTogetherness.
At HEINEKEN, we are proud to collaborate with the Social Gastronomy Movement to bring our Worlds Together Campaign to
life, with activities taking place in over 16 countries this year.
Sustainable Gastronomy means cuisine that considers where the ingredients come from, how the food is grown, and how it reaches our tables.
Additionally, it is about sustaining the vital connections and trust built through the shared experience of gastronomy. Social gastronomy is about the power of food to build connections. Through Worlds Together,
we aim to use food and beer as a universal language to bring people from all walks of life together.
Here are some ways in which food and beer can break barriers and build bridges:
1. Cultural Exchange: Food and beer allow us to experience different cultures in a tangible way, promoting understanding, respect, and curiosity.
2. Finding Common Ground: Sharing a meal or enjoying a drink creates a sense of familiarity and shared experiences, breaking down cultural boundaries and bringing people closer.
3. Creating Community: Coming together over food and drink strengthens the sense of community, fostering a desire to support and invest in local communities.
4. Promoting Dialogue: Food and beer are universal, making them natural conversation starters, and allowing meaningful discussions and connections to form.
To learn more about the campaign check out our recap video from last year's pilot!
Join us in celebrating Sustainable Gastronomy Day by reflecting on how we can use food and drink as tools for building bridges and promoting #TrueTogetherness. Let's raise our glasses today to a more inclusive, connected society and a healthier planet!

Introducing the Updated Brew a Better World 2030 Goals
For almost 160 years, we’ve been passionate about making a positive impact on the world. In April 2021 we launched our renewed sustainability strategy to drive progress towards a net zero, fairer, and more balanced world. We are now three years into developing and executing our Brew a Better World (BaBW) 2030 strategy and we can be proud of the results that we have achieved so far. From reducing our absolute carbon emissions across the value chain to increasing the percentage of women in senior management roles and growing the number of markets where we have a zero-alcohol option available, sustainability is being embedded in how we operate. And we know we still have more to do.
Reflecting on our learnings, we’ve refined our approach and updated our BaBW goals to better address the progress. Here’s a quick overview of what’s changed:
• Added new goals on carbon and circularity.
• Amended goals with a 2023 due date or where emphasis has changed.
• Removed goals that were substantially reached, no longer required the same focus, or had open-ended statements.
• Repositioned goals under different pillars for better coherence.
This update sharpens our focus to drive better impact for the environment, society and our business. We'll continue to raise the bar on environmental and social sustainability, and to champion responsible consumption.

Raising the BARley: HEINEKEN's First Large-Scale Regenerative Agriculture Harvest in Europe 🌾
More than 200 farmers in North-East France have already joined forces to cultivate barley using regenerative practices thanks to the TRANSITIONS program led by VIVESCIA and its malt subsidiary Malteurop. This number is expected to grow to 1,000 farmers by 2026, covering 100,000 hectares of land.
Regenerative agriculture is aligned with our goal to reduce scope 3 carbon emissions and move towards net-zero in our value chain by 2040. Its benefits also go beyond carbon: by focusing on soil health, biodiversity, climate, and water resources, our aim is not only to lower our environmental impact but also to contribute to improve farmers' livelihood.
We are proud to be part of this innovative coalition - from farmers and cooperatives, to transformers and the food & beverage companies.
Our ambition is to replicate regenerative agriculture projects of this scale in other regions in the world from where we source our grains.
