WHOLEFOODS

Brilliant for our bodies because they’re closest to their natural state. No modification. Our menus have lots of wholefood options; fresh, seasonal fruits and vegetables, pulses, nuts and seeds, and moderate amounts of sustainable meat and fish will always feature highly.

DIVERSITY

Variety is a critical part of healthy eating. When we eat a wide range of healthy foods, they add up to more than the sum of their parts. The “constellation” of good nutrients maximises the uptake of each. Plant-led seasonal diversity in our menus delivers this, and also supports a more sustainable approach to sourcing ingredients

GOOD FATS

The right fats and oils are essential for good nutrition. Our menus are well-balanced with omega 3 fats found in oily fish, nuts and seed, plus monounsaturated fats such as olive oil that can help support both the brain and heart health

REDUCE REFINED CARBS

An over-reliance on “ultra-processed” foods made from refined carbs, especially sugar and white flours, is at the heart of the obesity crisis. In contrast, the carb components of our menus come from whole foods and whole grains.

ANALYSIS

All our recipes have been nutritionally designed and analysed to help people personalise their choices; either to follow a specific training programme or simply to increase an element of their diet.

RETHINK DRINK

As little as 1-2% dehydration can reduce your cognitive performance so staying hydrated without loading up on sugar is important. We promote lower sugar drinks, for example, herbal teas and live kombuchas, across the offer. Free water refills are available at all our sites.

GET MOVING (PREFERABLY OUTSIDE…)

Exercising regularly can reduce your risk of major illnesses such as heart disease, stroke, type 2 diabetes and cancer by up to 50%. A diet rich in wholefoods will make you feel energised without feeling sluggish; increasing your inclination to move.

MENTAL HEALTH

We are training team members at each of our sites to become mental health first-aiders.
