We are super disappointed to announce that, after 14 innovative and successful years, as of Friday 20th December 2019, North Lanarkshire Council have decided that High Five for Fruit will no longer be running. More information will be emailed to everyone who receives our service.

@highfivefruit @alisonralstonh1 An great service with fruit always delivered with a smile. Sad there will be no more big valuable big chef/little chef training for staff, parents and children. Hopefully we can continue to order 50p fruit bags, excellent value for 5 pieces of fruit. Thank you for your service.

It's been a pleasure working with all the staff, children and parents/caregivers. We hope everyone had a lovely Christmas and New Year break. @lcfhp

We have made a positive impact across North Lanarkshire with High Five for Fruit, with children:
-eating 40% more F&V than national average
-having reduced food fussiness
-developing cooking skills that in turn can increase feelings of achievement, confidence and responsibility

@NHS_CFHS @obesityactionsc @clairehislop76 School based interventions!
Promoting F+V!
Working with families!

We've been screaming for this for years. With High Five for Fruit and Make Move Munch we've built so much evidence and shown need.

Its so obviously needed but no one wants to fund it.

This is the first airing of a video we've made at Maggie's Lanarkshire

We were asked to help a group with eating difficulties, some participants were a bit isolated...

The course was a great example of joined up working... Maggie's, McMillans...
