“"It has been a pleasure working with Runnymede Council on the Runnymede Cooks project. Ed and I had a lovely time filming alongside Sally and Georgina, and it was equally enjoyable working with Dan and Adam throughout post-production. I am very grateful to have been given the opportunity to contribute to such a meaningful project. As a vegan myself, it was particularly rewarding to help introduce local communities to affordable, accessible recipes that make incorporating more vegetables and plant-based foods into everyday diets easier."
“"Council officers really enjoyed working with Taryn, Ed and Adam on the Runnymede Cooks project. They were enthusiastic, professional and showed real dedication to meeting our requirements. We are delighted with the quality of the outputs that they have delivered."
“"Collaborative projects like Runnymede Cooks provide invaluable experience for our creative students, enabling them to develop their professional skills while producing work with a real purpose and audience. They also demonstrate the importance of our partnership with the Council, and how bringing together student creativity and local expertise can support shared ambitions for environmental sustainability, place-making, belonging, and community engagement."
“"Working with Royal Holloway students on the Runnymede Cooks campaign has shown the real benefits that can be realised when local organisations come together to deliver shared projects and achieve shared objectives. At Runnymede Borough Council, we are consistently looking for innovative ways to engage residents and deliver positive environmental action, and this partnership has brought fresh perspectives and expertise to the project. It has also created valuable opportunities for students to contribute to a live community-focused programme, helping to bridge the gap between academic learning and real-world action. By collaborating in this way, we can create stronger outcomes for our residents while helping to develop the future workforce, contributing to a more sustainable future."
