Banking on Health: Empowering Young People Through Food, Skills, and Community with Dr Shelly Coe and Dr Sarah-Louise Mitchell
Update: 2025-04-23
Description
In this episode, we dive into Banking on Health – a project empowering young people and their families to cook nutritious, affordable meals while building essential life skills. Led by Dr Shelly Coe and Dr Sarah-Louise Mitchell, researchers at Oxford Brookes University, the initiative tackles the growing challenge of food insecurity and low nutritional literacy by delivering hands-on workshops in schools. We hear how the project is helping children understand the connections between food, health, and sustainability, and why practical, community-based education is key to long-term change. Tune in for inspiring stories, valuable insights, and a fresh perspective on what it means to bank on health.
