On Tuesday 14 January, Grantham College’s first year catering students along with catering staff hosted a Healthy Eating event at South Kesteven District Council (SKDC).
SKDC are running a steps challenge alongside what they are calling Jan-YOU-ary. This campaign is designed to try and support physical health and encourage us to stay active. The healthy eating event forms part of the SKDC’s Wellbeing extensive programme to encourage staff to look after their mental, physical and financial health.
During the healthy eating session, catering students prepared a range of healthy snacks for staff to taste, including minestrone soup, lemon & poppy seed cake, as well as a savory flapjack. These recipes were then shared with SKDC employees so they could prepare these nutritious meals at home.
At the end of the session, staff members will have gained the confidence and knowledge to try out new dishes and think about how to make their regular food choices a bit healthier.
The SKDC staff truly enjoyed the session and found it to be a beneficial experience.
