New Early Years Food and Drink Policy support resources!

Our Food and Drink Policy support resources have been refreshed and align with Doncaster Council’s Compassionate Approach. Encouraging children to eat well and learn about food in their early years not only protects their health when they are young, but also sets the foundations for their future health and well being. As such, it is best practice for Early Year’s settings to have a food and drink policy in place, but not everyone might know where to start!

The guide provided is designed to act as a foundation and support you to make your own Food and Drink policy, including the use of the Food and Drink Policy template!
