Children’s Healthier Eating

A healthy, balanced diet helps children achieve and maintain a healthy weight, and research shows children who stay a healthy weight tend to be fitter, healthier, better able to learn, and more self-confident.

They’re also much less likely to have health problems in later life.

Download this useful NHS toolkit here to support you in improving your child’s health and wellbeing by encouraging them to explore what a balanced diet is, what is in their food and help you to make simple, healthier eating swaps.
