RIVERSIDE CAFÉ ACCEPTS HEALTHY LIVING AWARD

A Dunoon café run by Argyll and Bute Council has been presented with its coveted Healthy Living Award.
Riverside Café in the town’s Riverside Swim and Health Centre was presented with the award – which was first announced last year – for its ongoing commitment to national standards of good practice.

The Healthy Living Award recognises catering establishments across the country which are meeting the general public’s increasing appetite for healthy food.
The scheme makes it easier for people to make informed choices on the foods they eat.
It also encourages the food service industry to make changes to how food is prepared by reducing salt, fat and sugar in the food they serve.
Councillor Bruce Marshall, Chair of the Bute and Cowal Area Committee, congratulated everyone involved at the Riverside for their efforts.
“This is a major achievement for what is an extremely popular café,” he added.
“A Healthy Living award is a recognition of the café’s commitment to providing healthier options across its menu. A significant proportion of menu items now boast the Healthy Living apple logo, so there is a wealth of choice for customers.”
The Healthy Living award is open to all kinds of catering outlets, from hospital canteens to sandwich shops to staff restaurants.
