What is Suffolk Can?
What is Suffolk Can?
Take yourself back to May 2018, the BBC aired a show called Britain’s Fat Fight with Hugh Fearnley- Whittingstall
We watched as Hugh fought head on with our nations obesity crisis, tackling issues like marketing techniques by big brands, increasing activity and junk food. Throughout the series, Hugh and the team head to Newcastle, challenging the city to come together, changing the way people live and work together to improve health. Fast forward to June 2018 and Newcastle had done it! they collectively lost 100,000lb in weight. This was extremely refreshing to see and inspired by the series we set on a journey to do the same across the county of Suffolk. This page is in its early stages and will grow as we grow. Email us if you want to get involved or if you think you could help.
Our goal is for Suffolk to lose 10 Tons by 2020!
