Parents and carers join their children in each session to learn about how to choose healthier foods and spend more time being active. 

It's run by local teams in local communities.
Sessions run after school or at weekends in Powys leisure centers. Up to 12 families can attend at once.

MEND 7-13 is totally FREE. Families don't pay a penny.
All running costs are paid for by local authorities, grant organizations and corporate sponsors.
 
It offers a friendly, safe and non-judgmental environment.
Each week, everyone attends an interactive hour-long workshop as a group. Children spend the second hour doing physical activity while the adults discuss specific topics in more detail together.
