Bump the junk

These highly branded and marketed junk foods are making the processed food industry rich at the expense of our health.

Regularly eating junk food and sugary drinks puts us at risk of weight gain and health issues linked to this, including 13 types of cancer, heart disease and type 2 diabetes.

Homemade is healthier!

If you're sick of paying top dollar for greasy takeaway packed full of cheap ingredients, then you've come to the right place.

The LiveLighter public education campaign aims to raise awareness of the health risks associated with a higher body weight, and motivate people to eat well and be physically active. We don’t wish to make people feel bad about their size or shape. We also acknowledge that for some people, messages about eating and physical activity may be challenging, or raise personal issues.
