Pow Food, the UK’s first female-led B Corp catering company, has unveiled its innovative 12-Month Nutritional Education Calendar. This new initiative provides organisations with the tools and resources to offer employees nutritious, balanced meals that align with health awareness campaigns, educational themes, and cultural events throughout the year.
Incorporating nutrition into workplace wellbeing initiatives can significantly enhance their impact. By addressing the crucial role of diet in overall health, employers can make meaningful progress in tackling workplace stress and promoting better mental health outcomes.
Pow Food’s approach goes far beyond traditional catering services. With 40% of organisations reporting increased levels of employee stress and 55% of UK workers believing their workplace prioritises wellbeing, Pow Food aims to provide meals that not only nourish but also foster connection and education. As the only UK catering company offering this kind of programme, Pow Food seeks to set a benchmark for workplace wellness in 2025 and beyond.
Ali Warburton, CEO and co-founder of Pow Food, said: “Every bite of food we take is either brain fuel or brain fog, and companies are waking up to the fact that educating their workforce in good nutrition is the cornerstone of wellness in the workplace.”
Pow Food addresses the lack of on-site wellness resources by offering nutritionally balanced catering tailored to various budgets and dietary needs. Their services aim to boost productivity and enhance the long-term health of employees. This is further supported by expert-led online workshops, which provide teams with valuable nutritional knowledge and practical, actionable resources.
Research underscores the importance of focusing on healthy eating as part of workplace wellness programmes. Initiatives such as lunchtime yoga or mindfulness sessions may have limited impact without a solid foundation of good nutrition. The Mental Health Foundation emphasises that “one of the most obvious yet under-recognised factors in the development of mental health is nutrition,” underscoring the critical link between diet and overall wellbeing.
