Project Aim
Vulnerable families and individuals living in Swansea will have improved health and
wellbeing.
What does the project entail?
A six session programme that runs weekly, focussing on cooking, nutrition and physical
activity. Programmes are tailored to the groups' needs and we strongly encourage
parent/carer involvement to ensure families can make real improvements to their health
and wellbeing.
Nutrition information and cooking sessions are based around the Eat well Guide model and
there is a strong focus on eating '5-a-day' and having a balanced diet together with how to
meet physical activity recommendations and plan family meals.
Programmes can be delivered to whole classes (usually split into groups) or to smaller
'targeted' groups of pupils identified by the school.
What is required from the School?
