Eat well, Move well, Live well

We look forward to meeting you at the Cheltenham Science Festival in June!

Visit us at our stand in the Discover Zone to explore how eating and moving well can make you feel very well indeed!

You’ve probably heard all about eating five a day – but how do we choose a balanced diet while still enjoying what we eat?

And, you probably know that we should all get active – but why does movement make us feel so happy and support our health?

We’ve lined up some fun activities to help you find the answers to these two really important questions.

All of our activities have been designed to be inclusive so that everyone can take part.

Cheltenham Science Festival

We were proud to have been part of this year's Cheltenham Science Festival (4-9 June). Based in the Discover Zone, we met dozens of visitors and enjoyed guiding them through our activities. In addition, Dr Florence Sheen spent an hour in conversation with Federica Amanti (Head Nutritionist at ZOE) and Julia Wheeler, discussing the science behind eating well.
