Sporting clubs and leisure centres can play an important role in providing healthy environments and promoting healthy messages.
The food and drink on offer at your venue can send clear messages to the community about healthy options.
Your venue can help teach children and adolescents how to choose healthy food and drinks.
Also, you can increase profits by 10–15 per cent just by making your club or leisure centre’s menu healthier.
