Healthy Kimberley Community Challenge

Many of you have probably seen advertising for the Live 5-2-1-0 initiative around Kimberley. 
While the recommendations in the Live 5-2-1-0 messaging have been developed for 5-12 year old children, people of any age can benefit from making some or all of the components a regular part of their day-to-day lives. Participants are encouraged to eat at least 5 fruits and vegetables per day, limit ‘screen time’ to a maximum of 2 hours per day, increase physical activity to at least 1 hour per day, and to drink fewer sugar sweetened beverages, and choosing water instead. Challenge yourself, your family, your friends and colleagues!

This campaign is running a Community Challenge, and it runs Oct 5-Nov 30. 

The Healthy Kimberley Community Challenge is open to all residents of Kimberley, be they individuals, or families (those under the age of 19 need parent/guardian permission). Participants can submit  photos, short updates, poems, stories, videos, etc. on the healthy choices/changes they are making by e-mail, Facebook, or submissions dropped off at the Kimberley Medical Clinic.
