Schools
TheGovernment recommends an intake of at least five portions of fruit or
vegetables per person per day to help improve nutrition and reduce the
risk of acquiring serious illness such as cancer and heart disease.

in which all four to six-year-old children in LEA maintained infant,
primary and special schools are entitled to a piece of fruit or
vegetable every school day.
