Having loved cooking (and eating) food from a young age, Maya is excited to play a part in tackling food injustice. "Food giants target young children with deceptive and manipulative ads and products," says the Buckinghamshire-based activist. "Junk food hogs the spotlight, and profits are prioritised over children's health. And the bottom shelves – closest to babies, toddlers, and children – are flooded with foods that are high in salt, sugar, and fat, hidden behind mascots and bright, eye-catching packaging."
