Cardiff teaches friends to make healthy choices
The Cardiff peer led food and fitness initiative delivered to Black and Minority Ethnic (BME) groups trained 10 women from 5 different BME communities on key healthy eating messages.
This enabled the women to cascade the knowledge gained to their own communities in their own languages. This initiative demonstrated that engaging and empowering people in educating others can be an effective way of promoting informed choice and impacting this on their peers, especially when delivered in their own language
