Sugar Smart for Businesses
Everyone is eating too much sugar, and it is bad for our health. It is leading to high rates of tooth decay, obesity and Type 2 Diabetes.
As part of Sugar Smart Greenwich, a range of organisations across Greenwich are taking action to reduce the amount of sugar people are consuming.
​
You can get involved if you’re an organisation or an individual. If you’re an organisation, all you need to do is identify three simple pledges that your organisation can take: around food, drink and advertising. Click here to become Sugar Smart.
​Taking action doesn’t need to cost you anything and there are many ways to become Sugar Smart. Here's a few ideas:
-
Reduce the amount of fizzy and high sugar drinks you sell and offer other healthier options
-
Actively promote free drinking water, e.g. become a Refill location
-
Increase the price of fizzy and high sugar drinks
-
Display information on the sugar content of drinks at point of sale
-
Remove all adverts for products high in sugar, salt and fat, wherever possible
-
Run promotions/campaigns on healthier food and drink options
-
Work with suppliers to get them to sign the declaration themselves
