🤯poorest 20% eat 40% less fruit/veg compared to the most affluent in the UK! Frightening stats, & why our intervention focuses on providing fresh produce alongside support to cook from scratch in affordable ways. More is needed to close this nutrition gap urgently! #BrokenPlate

🫶🏻 Tom Heap @BBCCountryfile for highlighting the stark disparity, 40% less fruit/veg eating = 19 YRS LESS life expectancy! Thankfully councils/businesses that we work with know the importance of diet, but #nutrition is still the most underused tool for public health 🤯

All nutrition education & efforts of parents to get kids to eat a nutritious diet can’t compete with sophisticated marketing strategies of junk food companies! The UK diet is a systemic issue needing systemic solutions that protect children, awesome work Bite Back University of Liverpool 🫶🏻

📊 New Department for Education data reveals 2 million+ children are now eligible for #FreeSchoolMeals This highlights just how many families are struggling with the #CostOfLivingCrisis and shows why the Govt must extend access to this nutritional safety net. 🔗 bit.ly/3OZSZiK

Did you know?- We work with HAF programmes to provide a range of support: HAF provider training courses, HAF education materials (featuring Vegemi!) and family food nutrition resources, plus family recipe boxes ➡️ app.seidat.com/presentation/s… #HAF #HolidayActivitesandFood

It's disheartening that policy change and government support isn't targeting where it's actually needed. Meanwhile, we'll keep championing and working on the real need for better access to healthy food, education and skills to create meaningful change💛

We welcome this important report from @1ststepsnutrition - showing that at age 2-5 UK children are getting on average 61% of their energy from UPF's. More is needed to make sure children are getting a healthy start in life.

A fantastic move by Norway, when the negative consequences of unhealthy advertising to children are so clear 👏🏼 hopefully leading the way for a global movement 💛

Our mission is stronger with Vegemi 🥰Through our mixed reality and AI-powered app, featuring the lovable character Vegemi, we create a playful and immersive experience allowing children to unlock exciting superpowers by eating a diverse range of fruits and vegetables daily!🥦🍌

Another report highlighting the impact of unhealthy advertising! We must continue to expose these pervasive links to champion change for the future of health in our societies👏🏼

1%🤯 Children's health demands that we do more, and this certainly reveals just one needed change👏🏼

Our education focuses on a whole family approach, ensuring we nurture our next generation too. After their Venner experience 78% of families report children being more involved in the cooking, supporting skills development and quality family time👩🏽‍🍳🌟

This May half term we collaborated with Our Manchester Food Partnership and The Bread and Butter Thing , to support 45 families in Harpurhey, Manchester, with our innovative healthy food box and nutrition education intervention💛 Thanks to all involved!

An imbalance which must be addressed🙏🏼

Another #HAF season is upon us, and we’re excited to be working with providers and authorities again this summer to deliver exciting and impactful nutrition education to children and their families ⭐️ Read more on our LinkedIn page! linkedin.com/company/venner…

UPF consumption is not driven by indolence or greed, but poverty, intensive marketing and foods designed to make us keep eating theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

🚨 Our #BrokenPlate report reveals #healthyfoods are twice as expensive per calorie than less healthy foods. This shows urgent action is needed to help families struggling with the #CostOfLivingCrisis 🔗 bit.ly/43TmVlb
