In this episode Becks catches up with Alison Dewes from Tipu whenua, a veterinarian, farmer, mother to 3 children and passionate holistic systems thinker. Alison comes from a background of multi-generational dairy farming and she herself has farmed both here and in Australia. She now works with catchment ecosystems with her veterinary diagnostic hat on and a one-health “Mountains to Sea” approach allowing her to problem-solve at the root cause.
This week’s episode is based around UN Sustainable Development Goal 14 “Life below Water” but this doesn’t really do justice to this goal whose targets more specifically refer to how we conserve and sustainablay use the oceans, seas and marine resources with particular reference to how we avoid negative impacts as a result of land use on these ecosystems.
Alison is fiercly passionate about ecosystem restoration, working with farmers to provide practical solutions and holistic sustainability, and this episode highlights some of the exciting projects she is involved in.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
