Healthy Eating and Lifestyle Programme (HELP)

The HELP project aims to tackle childhood/teenagers unhealthy lifestyles through the provision of community based family centred programmes along with utilising the Garden and allotments facilities in the St Lurachs/Maghera area. The HELP project is free and has 2 phases, prevention (0-12yrs) and management (13-19yrs) programme focusing on well being, nutrition and physical activity. By engaging in “Healthy Lifestyles” (Prevention) and “Making a Difference” (Management) programmes we target families seeking to encourage healthy life choices through positive lifestyle changes in family environments assisting them to move into a more positive position for their futures.
