Welcome to Coretalk

Now that the recent changes to the healthyliving award are all in place, we are forging ahead to tell consumers what the award is all about, and to encourage them to look out for the sign of healthier food when they are out and about.

Read below about our consumer advertising campaign, and also about the new website and Facebook page which people can visit to find out more.

We also have news of some of the latest businesses and organisations to have achieved the award around the country.

And if you’re looking for a healthier home-baked treat, why not try our tasty tea loaf recipe?

Healthyliving award online and on the buses

Our new healthyliving award website is now live - have you visited yet? The website has had a complete make-over and a brand new look, so if you haven’t yet had a peek, be sure to visit at www.healthylivingaward.co.uk.

You can find all the familiar sections in a layout that’s now even easier to navigate. Find out how to get the award and where to eat healthily, as well as news and recipes.

You can read the latest news and subscribe to news feeds straight from the homepage, where you can also download popular leaflets. And, to read the latest issue of Coretalk on screen, just go to the News section, where you will find all the back issues as well.

A major enhancement to the website is our new Members’ Area, open to all award holders and registered businesses. Here you can access a whole range of information which will help you work towards and maintain the standards of the award.

From the Members’ Area you can download the latest point-of-sale resources, up-to-date guidance, ideas for marketing and promotion as well as staff training resources. You can also let us know about any changes to your contact details or those of your premises.

If you are registered with us or are an award holder, you should shortly receive your user name and password for the Members’ Area. If you have not yet signed up to the award we will send you login details when you register.
We’re also now live on Facebook, where as well as bringing you updates and information, we hope you’ll share your comments with us, too. To join us, visit www.facebook.com/HealthyLivingAward  or follow the link on our website homepage. If you’re a Facebook member please click ‘Like’ on our page. Hope to see you there!

Have you seen our adverts on any buses lately? They have been running on buses in the Glasgow, Edinburgh, Dundee, Stirling, Falkirk, Perth, Aberdeen and Fife areas, as well as outdoor locations such as railway stations, and in local Press. If you’ve spotted them we’d love to know - let us know through the Facebook page, or drop us an email.
