Publications
CWT produce evidence based reports which provide nutritional and practical guidelines to encourage eating well among specific vulnerable population groups. These reports are put together with a multi-disciplinary working group and make a number of recommendations which we think should be adopted locally and nationally to make a real difference to public health. We also produce some training materials to accompany our reports.
Our publications can be downloaded or hard copies can be purchased via Amazon.
CWT can accept BACS payments for single or bulk orders. Please contact us at: [email protected]
