Nutrition & Health - Level 2 Award (RQF) Course
The Nutrition and Health – Level 2 Award (RQF) Course is designed to give prospective students a good understanding of nutrition and healthy eating and will lead to a relevant qualification.
With rising levels of obesity in both adults and children, the Foresight study have estimated that by 2050 approximately 60% of men, 50% of women and 25% of children in the UK will be obese. These increasing obesity levels could cost the UK over £40 billion a year through increased care requirements and missed working hours.
