Healthy Eating

UPDATED 20150519 13:35:16

This session is a basic awareness session that will provide learners with opportunity to identify what a portion size looks like, benefits for healthy eating and recognise the different food groups that make up the eat well plate. The local 2006 Health and Community Survey produced by Public Health Blackburn with Darwen found that just fewer than 20% of adults in the Borough eat 5 or more portions of fruit or vegetables per day. This compares very closely to the findings of the national Health Survey for England (2003-5), which found over a quarter of adults eat 5 or more portions of fruit or vegetables per day, and places Blackburn with Darwen significantly lower than this. This session is based around raising the awareness of the importance of five a day but also identifying which foods belong to which food groups and importantly how to eat five a day whilst on a budget.
