Power Yourself With Plants: Week 1

Posted 1 week ago

What will you try this week?

For the month of January, we are supporting a campaign called ‘Veganuary’, which challenges those who partake to eat more plant-based food.🌱🌿

Eating a varied diet of vegetables and plant-based wholefoods has multiple benefits for your wellbeing and for the environment. 

We aren’t saying you should be vegan – but why not try to introduce more plants into your diet this month, for your mind, body and the planet?

Can we tempt you to try any of the vegan dishes on offer in your canteen this week? 🥗🍅
