Healthy4Life

Healthy4Life is a family focussed after school programme which aims to help children and parents/carers make positive changes to their lifestyle to maintain a healthy weight.

The free 10 week course involves attending group based sessions with other families once a week and covers topics such as:

• what is a balanced diet

• portion sizes

• learning about sugar and fat

• understanding food labels

• trying new foods

• five ways to wellbeing

• opportunities to prepare meals

• how to reduce screen time

Children also take part in sport and activity sessions to help them figure out what they enjoy doing to be physically active.
