A big year for Move More Eat Well

It's been a great year for Move More Eat Well with activities for all ages to help schools and communities feel healthier.

Since 2017 Move More Eat Well have been offering residents, community groups and schools across the wards of Longbridge, Cofton, Northfield and Rubery (North and South) opportunities to take part in a range of activities. These have included active travel, cycle maintenance & tuition classes, volunteering, food growing, sports and active hobbies. It's all been delivered by Health for Education Service, Garden Organic, ecobirmingham, Sport Birmingham and Sustrans.

Move More Eat Well recently published a report which shows progress in their first year.

The report found:

  • 25% more opportunities to be physically active in schools.
  • 20% of respondents reported positive behaviour change in relation to consumption of soft drinks and takeaways.
  • 95 people have attended training/activities to increase their skills in aspects of Move More Eat Well.

You can read the full Annual Report here.
