Healthy Kai Programme
Auckland Regional Public Health Service's Healthy Kai programme supports the primary prevention of obesity,
Type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease by addressing the nutrition environment in Mangere,
Otara, Glen Eden and Glen Innes.
The programme works alongside retailers (programme partners) to increase the availability and quality of ready to eat Healthy Kai choices. These ready to eat foods are actively promoted to encourage the community to purchase these healthier food choices from their local town centre.
