Recommendation 1

1. To ensure that young people have access to a healthy and balanced diet, the provider should ensure that homemade food is provided on all days of the week. This is to ensure that the care and support is consistent with the Health and Social Care Standards (HSCS) which state that: ' I can choose suitably presented and healthy meals and snacks, including fresh fruit and vegetables, and participate in meal planning' (HSCS 1.33).
