In her regular blog, Caroline Henderson from Hove, the winner of our Take a Minute competition, shares her family’s journey to better health – and hopes to inspire others to follow her lead.

Our competition asked how entrants would spend up to £800 (what NHS Brighton and Hove spends every minute on health care for the local population) on improving their health and encouraging other people to do the same, with the PCT funding the winning ideas.

Caroline’s health-boosting ideas included:

setting up a badminton club suitable for people of all sporting abilities
encouraging her sons to take up exercise through swimming lessons
getting a juicer so the family would eat more fruit and vegetables.
