Snack-tember is back!
Last year, nearly 1 million children and young people took part in the first ever Snack-tember!
This campaign is led by British Nutrition Foundation running throughout September 2026.
What is Snack-tember all about?
The aim is to help children and young people choose and make snacks that have:
MORE vegetables and fruit
MORE wholegrains, beans and pulses
LESS saturated fat, salt and sugars
These are key contributors to healthier, more sustainable snacking!
By joining the campaign, your school will be supporting children and young people’s knowledge, skills, confidence and motivation, so that they can make and choose healthier, more sustainable snacks.
Throughout September 2026, your school can help children and young people to:
Explore better snacking
Try new snacks
Make their own healthy snacks
There's a range of resources for those teaching, or working with, children and young people aged 5-16 years. These will include, activity ideas, recipes, posters and lots more!
Registration for 2026 is now open, so if you work with children and young people aged 5-16 years, in any setting, come and get involved!
REGISTER NOW to receive updates about Snack-tember, and access to ALL the resources.
