Bradford has been chosen as the UK pilot for the We Love Healthy project.
The project is being rolled out by the European Commission in seven cities across Europe. It aims to showcase the pleasures of eating healthy foods, with a focus on children, pregnant women and older people.
There will also be a special focus on targeting people from low socio-economic backgrounds.
Local Promoting Groups (LPGs) in Bradford will use the tools and materials provided to organise activities and events in order to create sustainable change in their communities.
The impact of the project will be monitored and evaluated by external experts, and the conclusions will be used to influence health policymakers in the future.
The participating cities are Banská Bystrica, Slovakia; Cluj Napoca, Romania; Deventer, Netherlands; Granollers, Spain; Poznan, Poland; and Roncq, France.
