What they have said is...
"The healthy eating session has been a very friendly and informative event!"
We set up the project because...
There is not much promotion material specifically on healthy multicultural eating, we wanted to design entertaining material that takes specific requirements of local communities into consideration.
The difference this project makes is...
Make people think about what ingrediants they use for traditional recipes and give tips on how to cook the same dishes more healthily, without having to make big changes.
Produce easy to understand promotion material for local communities.
