Veg Power CIC's Eat Them to Defeat Them programme aims to inspire kids and support and inspire parents and carers, so they eat more vegetables. In the UK, 80% of children don’t eat enough vegetables and 29% are eating less than one portion per day (NDNS 2016-2019). 45% of parents/carers say they struggle to get their kids to eat vegetables (YouGov 2021).
