Real Bread Week

​This week it’s the tenth anniversary of Real Bread Week. But there’s bread, and there’s bread. All sorts. For instance, if you want to be fit and healthy we can’t recommend white bread – it can do more harm than good by providing few nutrients but plenty of calories, as well as causing blood-sugar levels to rocket, only then to crash.

National Longevity Day

​The aim of National Longevity Day (Monday 19th February) is to get more people to realise that diet, lifestyle choices and exercise now will have a huge impact on them in later life.

​Love is in the air

​Love is in the air! This is the week for all lovers to stare into each other’s starry eyes… In case you’ve forgotten (as if!), it’s Valentine’s Day on the 14th.

National Pizza Day

​It’s National Pizza Day today in the USA, and as we often – rightly or wrongly – follow America, expect it to be a recognised day in the UK soon too.
