  • Appetite for Life Training for Maori and Pacific Facilitators - Tue, 2012-05-29 18:00

    Appetite for life is a 6 week healthy lifestyle course delivered through primary care and community groups by trained facilitators. The course:

    • involves no dieting, weighing, or measuring
    • celebrates food and eating
    • helps people rediscover energy and zest for life!

    Appetite for Life is a generic course – cultural appropriateness comes in the delivery. We need MORE MAORI AND PACIFIC FACILITATORS so that their communities can benefit from the lifestyle changes AFL motivates!
