Cooking up inspiration
If you need some help at mealtime, try Donna’s Virtual Cookbook, recipes from our registered dietitian. Donna employs a “use what you have” mantra for minimal food waste. We’re adding new recipes all the time, so keep checking back.
Family-friendly activities
We now have a Facebook group, FSPY Family at Home, dedicated to family fun. Join our group here for ideas, videos, links, resources, inspiration and more, all aimed at families with children at home.
We also have a number of family friendly games and activities, with more to come. Try our Fitness Roll Call or our Fitness Fun for Everyone Family Board Game.
