Why Sport and recreation facilities?

Sport and recreation facilities provide places for children and young people to spend their time being active, so it makes sense to provide them with healthy options to fuel their activity.

Your facility can play an important role in helping the families and children visiting your service to make healthy choices by providing food and drinks that meet the Healthy Choices Guidelines.

Whether your facility has vending machines or a retail outlet, Vic Kids Eat Well can help your facility meet the guidelines and create a healthier environment in which children and young people can thrive.

Join the movement today

Sport and recreation facilities across Victoria are deciding to serve delicious, healthy options. By joining the Vic Kids Eat Well movement, your facility can create healthier environments where kids can thrive.

What is involved?

Once you register you will be connected with a health promotion professional who will work with you to make healthy changes in your facility. Your facility may have already made healthy changes to meet the requirements of the Healthy Choices Guidelines or may be just beginning. You may wish to start with a ‘small bite’ and make a small change, or a ‘large bite’ and make a bigger change. Work your way through all the bites, collecting rewards and celebrating your success as you go.

For more details on the specific steps involved with each bite, check out our resources.
