Programme Spotlight: Wildcats
In the first of our monthly programme spotlights we are taking a closer look at Wildcats, the FA-funded programme aimed at engaging girls aged five to 11 in football.
It is vital we teach children the importance of drinking water, staying hydrated and the danger of consuming too much sugar.
Danielle Chapman, Foundation of Light’s Primary Stars CoordinatorDanielle added “The Powered by Water programme is a fantastic way to educate children on how to stay topped up with water throughout the day and most importantly that water keeps your brain healthy, helps you think clearly, improves your mood and prevents you from getting tired. These are really important messages for young children, as it will help them to form healthy habits.” Northumbrian Water has also installed two water refill stations at the charity’s home, the Beacon of Light. As part of the Refill programme, people can fill up their refillable bottles with tap water, free of charge, in order to reduce plastic waste and encourage people to live healthier lives.
