PASEFIKA CHALLENGE
Fun and fitness for all the family
This is a programme for overweight children and their families. We help children and families with food choices and eating, as well as physical fitness and activities.
If you want to help your child with their weight, the keys to success are:
Involving the whole family in the healthy eating and a physical activity programme
- Involving the whole family in the healthy eating and a physical activity programme
- Regular attendance at both the clinic and exercise programme. The programme is fun and enjoyable. Your child will learn about healthy eating and take part  in physical  activity. They will make friends, gain confidence and learn sports skills.
