Lizzie Vann is the founder of the children’s food company Organix.  Motivated by her own experience of the links between food quality and human health, she has worked for thirty years to raise the quality standards of foods fed to children. 

Organix, a company that produces high quality organic foods for babies and children, devotes a proportion of its profits each year to the Organix Foundation. Since leaving the company in 2008, Lizzie has continued to campaign on children's helath issues and to fund, alongside the Hero Group, The Organix Foundation.

Organix regularly publishes information for parents and policy makers that focus on areas where children’s food can be improved.  These reports are often published alongside organisations such as the Soil Association, Reports include:

• The ‘Carrots or Chemistry Sets’ series of four reports into junk food, including ‘The Real Meal Deal’ about children’s food sold in restaurants, (published November 2006) and ‘Not What the Doctor Ordered’ about the food sold in vending machines in sports centres and hospitals (published July 2007). 

• In 2003 Lizzie and Organix were part of the team that created the  ‘Food For Life’ report, which detailed the challenges that schools faced in offering nutritious school meals.  The report was pivotal in catalysing a review of the school meal funding and regulation, as well as being one of the inspirations for the Jamie Oliver TV series ‘Jamie’s School Dinners’.
