The Nutrition Fair aims to keep New Year resolutions going into February.

If you started the New Year with plans to make some lifestyle changes, but are struggling to stay motivated, then a nutrition fair being run by students from the University of Chester might be just what you need!

The Fair is hosted by final year Human Nutrition, Nutrition and Exercise and Nutrition & Dietetic students, who are keen to encourage visitors to ‘forget the fads’ and explore different ways to stay healthy.

The fair will be taking place live, in person in the Small Hall at Exton Park campus. The date for the diary is Wednesday February 7th from 11.00am until 1.00pm. Students will be presenting live, offering healthy lifestyle advice, interactive games and top tips to help encourage people to think about ways they can lead a healthier life.
