About The Collaborative Health Community

We are a recently formed Charity who are running a project called Collaboration for Kids (CFK) in the Bognor Regis area. We are extremely excited to be partnering with a Secondary School within Bognor Regis, working together to co-create and pilot interventions that inspire our young people to turn away from ultra-processed foods and eat more real foods, the way nature intended.
