5+ A Day in the Community
Dame Lisa Carrington
We’re excited to partner with Dame Lisa Carrington for a third year in 2024. Dame Lisa Carrington is a world champion kayaker and New Zealand’s most decorated Olympian of all time. She has won six Olympic medals – five gold and one bronze – across three consecutive Olympic Games. Lisa is an advocate for healthy eating and is a fresh fruit and vegetable fan, making her the perfect partner to help us encourage all Kiwis to eat 5+ A Day.
Add One More Vegetable
The 5+ A Day Charitable Trust has partnered with Vegetables.co.nz to launch an exciting new initiative encouraging Kiwi whānau to Add One More Vegetable to their daily routine.
This simple message is designed to make adding more servings of New Zealand vegetables an achievable goal for everyone.
We'll be featuring simple ideas to Add One More Vegetable to a variety of dishes on our @5aday social channels throughout the year, be sure to check them out.
