A study of 2,000 adults found that while 79 per cent have sympathy for the NHS in its current state, 55 per cent believe something needs to change when it comes to the meals served

A survey of 2,000 adults revealed that while 79 per cent sympathise with the current state of the NHS, 55 per cent believe changes need to be made regarding the meals served.

Dr Shireen Kassam, founder of the community interest company, stated: "There's certainly an appetite to see change. Naturally, there will be many that perhaps wouldn't be as keen, but often once ideas are implemented, people adapt very quickly." A quarter of respondents felt that hospital meals were often served lukewarm or cold, with the same percentage believing the portions were too small.

However, there is concern that the public may not support the introduction of plant-based menus in hospitals, with 23 per cent expressing this worry.
