Waltham Forest

Planning officials in Waltham Forest have responded to growing concern over the number of fast food outlets in the area by producing a supplementary planning document. Supplementary planning documents provide more detail about a planning policy, such as restricting fast food outlets. The move is the result of a cross-Government obesity strategy that encouraged councils to address the problem of fast food outlets. Waltham Forest is one of two councils in the country to do so.

It is not just a matter of preventing new takeaways - the Labour-run council is also considering a ban on new fast food outlets within 400 metres of schools. These restrictions would help curb child obesity, which is one of the highest in the UK. However, the restrictions are not an end-all solution, and they could lead to empty shops or no other outlets that are profitable. Alternatively, schools should offer healthier foods and sports competitions to encourage healthier eating habits.

Yard Sale Pizza - Despite starting out as a one-man operation in the back garden of its founder, Yard Sale now has two locations in Waltham Forest. It has an impressive celebrity following, and is even home to a vegan version of its Herb Your Enthusiasm pizza. Sodo has an impressive menu of dishes that are sure to satisfy your cravings. If you're looking for a quick meal, try Sodo's pizzas.
