Explore this year's panel of experts who will present cutting-edge research on the microbiome, examining how it is influenced by early-life feeding choices. The discussion will delve into the challenges and potential solutions for enhancing both medical and societal comprehension of this vital topic.
Find out more about last year's world-leading panel of experts who debated topics and trends around the growing cost of poor nutrition, and how to drive fundamental shifts in our food systems to move towards a healthier future for all.
When we think of health, we often picture our own bodies; what we eat, how we move, how we feel. But our personal wellbeing is inseparable from the health of the world around us. Soil, the most overlooked of ecosystems, is not only the foundation of our food system but also of our collective health system.
Fitness Tips
We’ve all heard the phrase “trust your gut,” but science now tells us that our gut is doing far more than helping us digest food. Deep inside us lives a vast community of microbes – bacteria, fungi, and even viruses - known as the gut microbiome. This hidden ecosystem influences everything from immunity and energy to mood and mental clarity.
Dirt is something we often take for granted, but in truth, the ground beneath our feet is one of the most powerful influences on our health, our food, and our future. Patrick Holden CBE, Founding Director and Chief Executive of the Sustainable Food Trust, has spent decades working to transform the way we grow, produce and consume food. Ahead of this year’s Goodwood Health Summit, presented by Randox Health, Patrick’s message is clear: soil health is public health.
Previous Events
The second annual Goodwood Health Summit presented by Randox focussed on 'The Microbiome, Infant Feeding & the First Five Years'. Her Grace the Duchess of Richmond, a long-standing and prominent health campaigner invited six world-leading experts to address the Summit in three sessions hosted by broadcaster, journalist and psychologist Sian Williams.
Previous Events

An exciting next step in the Summit’s history, it will see the bringing together of leading experts to discuss crucial topics surrounding the microbiome, infant feeding and the importance of nutrition in the first five years.
In recent years we have seen a highly notable change in the people’s behaviours as they seek to better understand their bodies better, and we want to stress the importance of taking pro-active measures to ensure good health & well-being now and in the future.
