Child health is at a tipping point
Obesity is one of the biggest crises facing our country, with diet-related disease-causing untold personal misery and costing the NHS ยฃ6 billion a year and rising. In the most deprived areas, 1 in 3 children leaves primary school obese, almost double the rates in more privileged areas.
Investing equally in the next generation, equipping every child with the skills to eat and cook real food for themselves, is a proven, vital intervention into their future health, wellbeing and happiness. Yet while the school food system has come a long way, there is still too often beige, boring bad for you food being served up in schools.
“But you canโt change the system.” Nope.
“But good food is expensive”. Wrong again.
“Kids donโt need nice food”. Now thatโs just mean.
Better is possible
At Chefs in Schools, weโre delivering clean, healthy, inexpensive, generation-powering, mind-opening, society-changing food in schools โ and inspiring and enabling schools across the country to follow our lead.
