And remember, the healthyliving award will be transferring from Consumer Focus Scotland to NHS Health Scotland on 1 April 2013 – details to follow.

Fresh is a takeaway food outlet in Greenock owned by Stepwell, an innovative social enterprise company. We asked Manager Denise McCartney about her experience of going for the healthyliving award.

  • Q. What were your main reasons for applying for the healthyliving award?
  • A. To highlight our focus as a company on healthy living, to be better placed for local authority catering opportunities and to raise customer awareness of the options we have available.
  • Q. What has achieving the award meant to your business?
  • A. We were really pleased to achieve the award and display it in our premises. It has given us a talking point to chat to our customers.
  • Q. Do you feel that going for the award has been worthwhile?
  • A. As a company, promoting healthy living is at the core of what we already do, but the healthyliving award gave us a focus and enabled us to communicate that message in a clearer way and gain recognition through the award for what we offer our customer base.
