How does HENRY make a difference?
HENRY family support works – 97% of families who join a HENRY family programme are leading a healthier lifestyle by the programme's end. Independent evaluation has shown that families make long term lifestyle changes, and parents themselves often describe our support as ‘life-changing’.
Here's what families across Leeds have said about HENRY
“I have been improving things for myself and my family. We have less screen time and do more activities. We’re swapping some snacks and drinks for better choices. I’ve found new ways of dealing with situations – we listen equally to each other now, and I allow ‘me-time’ to feel more revived, focused, and confident.”
“It was good to share ideas with other parents and the challenges that face them. I got lots of ideas about how to help my family and make healthier choices for us all. I am a lot more mindful about the snacks and meals my children have, incorporating fruit and vegetables where I can and cutting back on processed snacks. I am more aware of the portion sizes they require.”
“I try to listen more attentively and be patient with them, allowing the children to communicate what they are feeling. Finally, we try to move about more, taking advantage of parks on the way home from school.”
