Allyson Lloyd accepts the Good Egg Award for Croydon CouncilCroydon has made a commitment to use free-range eggs across all council catering by at least 2012. The council is already free-range on staff catering, function catering, Clocktower Café, Council-run residential homes and 91 of Croydon's schools.

"We are delighted to receive a Good Egg Award. Croydon Council takes responsible procurement of food and drink seriously and tries to understand the ethical and environmental impacts of food buying decisions. Since becoming the first London borough to achieve Fairtrade status in 2002, Croydon has been working across a range of contracts to see how more sustainable food and drink can be incorporated. The council already uses free range eggs in most of its catering contracts, and is committed to being completely cage free by 2012."
Allyson Lloyd, Corporate Catering Manager
