We’re making a change! Our usual Healthy Eating Week is being transformed into a month-long event. In September 2025, we’ll be celebrating… Snack-tember!

The aim of Snack-tember is to help children and young people (aged 5-16 years) have healthier snacks. We’ll be providing information, activity ideas, recipes, posters and other exciting materials to help children and young people explore their current snacking choices, and learn about, make and try new snack options!

Who’s it for?

Children and young people aged 5 – 16 years old and their schools, or the clubs they attend.

We’ll also be having a special focus on young people in the first two years of secondary school. We specifically want to help support young people, at a time when they are developing more independence, to make choices and form healthier habits that will have positive long-term benefits. (We’ll be calling on our secondary school teachers to help us!)

What’s the ambition?

We want:

• to help children and young people make and choose healthy, sustainable snacks
• 6,000 schools to register for Snack-tember
• Over 1 million young people to take part

We will be providing:

• classroom materials for teachers
• hints and tips for school caterers
• information for parents/carers
