In May 2008, Fruitful Office was selected by the Eat in Colour campaign to assist them in their “Bowl not Biscuit Challenge” aimed at companies who offer unhealthy snacks, such as biscuits, to their employees. Every year, there are 175 million sick days off work in the UK (CBI) – a significant proportion of these sick days is linked to the lack of fruit and vegetable intake on a regular basis. The objective of the campaign was to encourage companies to offer their employees bowls of fresh fruit as a healthier treat. We supplied several offices with regular fresh fruit for 6 weeks and the feedback was extremely positive from all companies.
Fruitful Office has also become a sponsor of the Eat in Colour campaign – we think this is a great campaign as it looks at practical ways of encouraging people to eat more fruit and vegetables.
