Whether you run a local restaurant, café or corner shop, all businesses that sell food in Sheffield can help us make a difference to our community.

Take a look at some of the small changes you could make to encourage your staff to promote healthier options and your customers to look after their family’s health.

  • Why Pledge?

    Just as you might identity vegetarian, vegan or gluten-free options, start making sugar-free or low-sugar a feature of your menus or blackboard specials.

  • Why Pledge?

    A healthy workforce is a more productive one. Introduce water stations and make healthy snacks, like fresh fruit, available in staff rooms for purchase or free if you can accommodate this. Have a healthy at work policy.

  • Why Pledge?

    Ask your suppliers to recommend healthier food and drink options and, if you’re providing cooked food, discuss sugar substitutes with your chefs, such as spices and natural sweeteners.

  • Why Pledge?

    Increase the price of sugary or fizzy drinks and make water more accessible. You could even introduce more special offers on sugar-free options.

  • Why Pledge?

    Remove high sugar snacks and drinks from the checkout so children aren’t tempted to ask parents for these above our healthier options.

  • Why Pledge?

    Give water and low-sugar drinks a more prominent place in your chiller cabinets and provide tap water free of charge if you run a restaurant or café.
