IN CONVERSATION…

Eating well when you’re short on time • Eating three perfectly balanced meals each day is a great goal, but we can all appreciate that this just isn’t possible every day. Life gets in the way, some weeks, we don’t plan as well as we would like, and we find ourselves resorting to quick-fix foods just to ensure both ourselves and the family are fed. This is fine – it’s normal, and it’s real life! Learning strategies to help you to still eat well while short on time is extremely important.

That being said, nothing could prepare me for the shock I felt when I discovered that two young people in my family had suffered from the same abuse that I was supporting people with on a daily basis.
