Guernsey healthy food for children scheme to continue

A scheme encouraging children across Guernsey and Alderney to develop a healthy relationship with food is to be continued, the charity behind it has announced.

The Health Improvement Commission (HIC) said its Growing Gang initiative gave nursery and pre-school staff advice on how to make vegetables engaging for children, as well providing seeds and compost to grow the food.

It said the approach improved eating habits and aligned with broader goals, such as fostering a sense of responsibility and connection to the environment.

The 27-location scheme receives supplies from Le Friquet Garden Centre and Alderney Roots and funding from the States of Guernsey.
