BUPA CARE HOME RESIDENTS GO BANANAS FOR FRUITY FRIDAY

Tuesday, 12 May 2009


Bupa care home residents at The Hornchurch Nursing Centre, Suttons Lane, Hornchurch are going bananas next week in support of World Cancer Research Fund’s (WCRF) Fruity Friday campaign.

On Friday 15 May, residents and staff of Bupa’s The Hornchurch Nursing Centre are getting fruity by hosting a fruity event where residents will be tasting different fruits from around the world from 11am.

Vivienne Wood, Bupa’s The Hornchurch activity co-ordinator, said, “Campaigns like Fruity Friday are a great way of getting the message across about the importance of healthy eating whilst having a bit of fun.”

Fruity Friday is an annual awareness and fundraising campaign, held by World Cancer Research Fund (WCRF UK), to increase public awareness of the links between diet, nutrition and cancer prevention, and to raise valuable funds for their cancer research and education programmes.
