Breckland Council Audit

As part of the Healthy Eating Pilot at Breckland Council, Uscreates carried out an audit of the facilities at Breckland in relation to food. The audit identified 3 key problem areas that need to be approached to improve eating habits.

Key Problem Areas:

• Low quality breaks – breaks away from the desk/workspace are not common


• Low levels of communal eating and poor sharing culture – many staff eat at their desks and rarely use the communal facilities (staff room provided)


• Breckland is stuck in a ‘sandwich rut’ – there is a lack of variety in diet

Methodology

The audit comprised of a number of research methods including:

• A checklist of facilities and opportunities currently available to staff


• Observational research of eating behaviours and culture within the office


• Interviews with a selection of employees


• Activities given to employees to gain insightful data
