The Caroline Walker Trust was founded in 1988 after the death of the distinguished nutritionist, writer and campaigner, Caroline Walker.
Established to continue her work and in her spirit, the CWT depends wholly on donations, legacies and project grants.
The work of the CWT is particularly targeted towards vulnerable groups and people who need special help. We produce nutritional and practical guidelines for both young and old.

Summarise key public health issues that need to be tackled
-
Highlight key areas for intervention at local and national level
The theme will cover nutrition from pregnancy, through early years to old age with particular emphasis on vulnerable groups and will encompass Caroline’s life and goals and history of the Trust, with an up-to-date summary of all recommendations.
Places will be limited so if you want to be the first to receive further information on this conference please sign up to our e-newsletter.
