Each year on April 7th, the World Health Organisation (WHO) observe World Health Day to call for urgent action to eliminate global health inequalities.
The last 12 months have been challenging globally as the COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted the importance of a well balanced diet and regular exercise for a healthy mind and body.
As advocates of ensuring that our bodies are fuelled by delicious fresh produce we’re pleased to be bringing attention to World Health Day again this year.
