Join us for the first of our Diet, Nutrition and Hydration Summer sessions, with the first taking place at Upton Vale Baptist Church Torquay (spaces limited to 30 attendees) from 10.15am till 1pm, on Thursday 6^th of July.

To kick things off, there will be a fun quiz on the topic of food and drink, followed by an explanation of how to read food labels, what they mean, and how diet can affect our moods and wellbeing, with tips on how we can try to maintain a healthy diet.

This will be followed by a fun activity where everyone will measure out what they think a portion or recommended portion is, of different food and drinks, such as units of alcohol and what a bowl of cereal really is.

Later, after a break (with refreshments!) a session about hydration and getting liquids into you, especially while it’s hot – fruit, ice pools, jelly, ice cream, and why is it so important to stay hydrated and the risks of not.  Not just about boring pints of lukewarm water – yuck!

Turning Heads CIC will be joining us to rustle up a selection of tasty meals (veggie style) using different ingredients such as Bulger Wheat, CousCous and Chickpeas – for people to try and also take recipe cards and ingredients home to make again.

These sessions are mainly aimed at over 50’s, however, all ages are welcome to join in.

If you’re interested, please contact Jess Slade for more details – phone 07772023170, or email jessslade@torbaycdt.org.uk
