Healthy Living Fair 2012

Inaugural Malmesbury Healthy Living Week w/c 26th March – culminating in the Healthy Living Fayre @ the Town Hall on Saturday 31st March.

The aim is to provide the public with an informative week, showcasing what the area has to offer from a health perspective. It will allow any health-related businesses, individuals, societies or clubs to promote themselves.

It is being organised with the support of Emma Newby, McTimoney Chiropractor and is planned to become an annual event for the town and surrounding area. It will finish with a ‘Healthy Living Fayre’ in the Town Hall on Saturday 31st March 2012 between 10.30am-3.30pm.

Christine Hamilton has kindly agreed to open the event, which will include stalls, demonstration and presentations, including a Gloucester Cricket Team player, who will explain what it’s like being a professional sports person.

There will also be a raffle prize draw taking place at the end of the day. We expect to have over £1000 worth of donated prizes including, meals, gift vouchers, a Dyson vacuum, afternoon Tea for Two, Golf for Four at Castle Combe and many, many more

Any profits from the e vent will be split between future Chamber events and a local health charity. For the inaugural event we have chosen Bath Neo-Natal Intensive Care Unit.

There is an extensive marketing programme planned with banners, posters and press releases and we would like businesses from within the Malmesbury area to benefit from the increased coverage, press attention and increased footfall to the area that the Fayre will bring.

SO WHAT CAN YOU DO ??

If you are a health professional, you may like to take a stall @ the Fayre and maybe give a demonstration of your profession, also maybe donate a treatment, service or product as a raffle prize

As an eating establishment, we would like you to take part in the week’s activities, by either nominating a healthy dish that already exists on your menu or, better still, create a new dish which can then be promoted throughout the week with reference to the Healthy Living Week. All we ask is that you kindly consider to donate a small percentage (or set amount – say £1) to the chosen charity, and perhaps sell some raffle tickets for us.

If you are a sports club, society, or group that promotes heathly living in any way, then you may like to take a stand, do a demonstration, or offer a ‘taster’ session to encourage new members.

If you would like to take part in the Healthy Living Week, please do get in touch so that we can register your participation. All participating business will, of course, get included in marketing materials and press releases and the website www.malmesburyhealth.co.uk.
