What's Happening
The Healthy Steps programme has launched!
Better Health's 'Healthy Steps' programme is an 8-week email programme to support families to make healthier choices, including easy tips, budget-friendly recipes, family challenges and more.
How does Healthy Steps work?
Parents/carers can sign up at any time by completing a quiz about their current eating and physical activity habits. Once they’ve completed the quiz they will receive weekly emails on one of these themes, tailored to their quiz results:
- Reducing sugar
- Eating 5 a day
- Meal planning
The content in the emails will then provide families with simple ways to take steps towards healthier behaviours.
As part of the programme, families are set goals or tasks to complete every other week, such as swapping out sugary fizzy drinks, or adding fruit or veg to their breakfasts.
Regular feedback points give families the opportunity to celebrate their successes and continue to make positive changes.
