Living healthily: David’s story

Chosen outcome: Health and well-being: I am living a healthy lifestyle

David has not always had a healthy diet and wanted to try and improve the amount of healthy food he eats.

He worked with his support worker to go through his shopping list and look at healthier options, including learning how to cook a wider range of healthier meals.

Undertaking work experience in the kitchens at Minstead Lodge has helped him learn food preparation skills. He has also been able to retain and implement the hygiene awareness he has been applying in the workplace.

David is now able to choose more healthy meals and is able to make some meals from scratch.
