RedBranch and Parents
RedBranch
aim to support parents in any way that we can. We have very limited
resources, but we would encourage any parents that are interested
lifestyle and health issues to contact us. We don't offer a personalised consultancy service,
but we will do our best to provide general lifestyle information. Please
contact us with your stories, tips and advice, and we will do our best to
include them on our site.

information see our Parents Section.
RedBranch and Schools
RedBranch provide health-related
educational material for schools.
This is supported by practical advice, behavioral lifestyle cues and
improved access to healthier choices. The
programme can be integrated with the curriculum at a number of levels.
We help schools to develop specific lifestyle
policies, which address issues like healthy eating and physical
activity. This is coupled with an implementation package which includes the
provision of a range of tailored educational inputs, including parent fact
sheets, parent workshops, student workshops, teacher workshops, lesson plans, classroom activity
sheets and practical school projects. The programme includes improved access to
healthy lifestyle options in the school and wider community, and facilitates
partnership between schools and appropriate suppliers.

Schools Section.
Lifestyle Changes: Our Philosophy
We
aim to empower children and parents so that they can make informed
decisions about their health and quality of life. We aim to challenge the
culture of passivity. We do not
preach, we simply help people to make their own choices from an informed
position.
