Here at Neighbourhood Trust, we are so excited by the new programme we are able to get started thanks to a grant from the Air Rescue and Community Services Trust. It's called 'Shake that Quake Weight'. Last year we were wondering what we could do to help the people of Christchurch, dealing with all the stress and ending up putting on weight, which none of us wants to do. Sally Rossiter, who has been one of the people running the Appetite for Life classes here put her thinking cap on and came up with a brilliant programme that gives on-going support to people in a holistic approach to weight management.

Have a look at the programmes page. This course has it all - individualised eating plans, menu planning, help with what to buy, how to cook it, encouragement, exercise in the form of circuits and pilates. Numbers are strictly limited for the nutrition side of it, so don't delay if this is something you've been thinking about. This is a long-term programme to change eating habits and get you fit for life!
