“Now the students are more comfortable

being seen eating the healthier options

because that’s what they see first.”

change with the snacks. We used to

make cakes and biscuits; we’ve now

got much healthier options.”

The website is a wonderful tool“Our Chef has used the website for the summer menu.”“You always get little snippets on the

Facebook page, recipes and I know you’re always there.”

“We’ve used afternoon tea recipes off the fuelled4life website.”

Positive influence on behaviour“We’ve noticed with the food and drink

changes it’s had a positive impact on

decreasing peer pressure.”“You can now hear them saying to

each other, “Oh that’s not a very healthy food,” they now know what’s healthier and what’s not.”

Helps children and young people learn off each other, increases their knowledge and understanding“The children are going home and telling their parents or each other about some of the delicious healthy food they’ve had or what they should be having.”“Fuelled4life is helping the young kids

to eat healthily. They’re watching each other and are now willing to learn and try new foods and drinks.”

New, simple tool for understanding what healthier foods and drinks are

“We found the Buyers’ Guide really helpful to refer to. It outlines healthier options to buy.”“Teachers and staff can now explain in confidence to the parents about what some of the changes are, what the Buyers’ Guide means, about everyday and sometimes foods.”
