After postponing all Healthy Living Days because of COVID19, it’s an amazing feeling to be back running these vital events in collaboration between schools and stores to educate the many pupils about the importance of healthy eating. Getting back underway with great success, we had the pleasure of welcoming an amazing 160 pupils from Seaton Primary School to their local Spar in St Machar. Met with great excitement and enthusiasm, the pupils took part in a range of fun activities and exercises as they learned about a variety of fruits as they took part in a tour throughout the store whilst all the healthy products that are available to help live a healthy lifestyle were highlighted to them.
We want to say a huge thank you to the team at SPAR Scotland for supporting our first event back!
Healthy Living Days are just one of the great events we run in stores across the country. A unique and fulfilling opportunity to promote responsible retailing and get involved with local initiatives, Healthy Living Days see stores work with the HLP team to organise and support trips in collaboration with local schools. Not only is this great for increasing footfall in your store as pupils return with their HLP-supplied vouchers to redeem for a bottle of water or a piece of fruit, but it’s also a fantastic incentive to get involved with to raise your community profile and build up meaningful and lasting relationships with your local shoppers as you practice responsible retailing. You can find out all the information about Healthy Living Days here, and for all of our events click here.
Working with a range of symbol groups throughout the convenience store sector, the Healthy Living Programme are always looking for stores to get involved with one of our many fantastic events, finding the right fit and solution that fits for you.
