Disclaimer
This guide has been developed with a size-inclusive and strength-based Health
Promotion lens. We want to ensure users of this guide understand that it is
intended to create an environment where people of all sizes and abilities can
move, eat, rest and connect in ways that feel good and is sustainable for them
(and is not aimed at achieving weight loss).
We acknowledge that the relationship between food and our bodies is a complex
topic and can often lead to negative feelings. The aim of this guide is to support
workplaces, organisations and the general community who want to create spaces
where more nourishing food and drink is available to allow people to make the
best choice for themselves and their circumstances.
Additionally, it is important to note that caterer’s menus may change and we will
update this guide annually to reflect this. Please refer to the website of each
caterer for more information on their menus.
