Support for the elderly <strong>in</strong> Japan<br />
Our support for physical activity is not solely focused on<br />
children. We also strive to support older family members <strong>and</strong><br />
help them rema<strong>in</strong> active as they age. <strong>Nestlé</strong> Japan, which<br />
began the Kobe Genki! Iki-Iki!! project together with the Kobe<br />
City Government <strong>in</strong> 2013, seeks to improve the quality of life of<br />
the elderly population <strong>and</strong> prevent the need for nurs<strong>in</strong>g care,<br />
by enc<strong>our</strong>ag<strong>in</strong>g them to walk short distances to a café where<br />
they can chat.<br />
<strong>Nestlé</strong> Japan is support<strong>in</strong>g this <strong>in</strong>itiative by provid<strong>in</strong>g<br />
Nescafé Gold Blend barista mach<strong>in</strong>es for designated meet<strong>in</strong>g<br />
places <strong>in</strong> the community. They also provide <strong>in</strong>structors to talk<br />
to the elderly about nutrition <strong>and</strong> teach them simple exercises<br />
that can be practised at home. The project is currently<br />
explor<strong>in</strong>g opportunities to exp<strong>and</strong> to other cities.<br />
Help<strong>in</strong>g people reduce their salt<br />
<strong>in</strong>take <strong>in</strong> Central <strong>and</strong> West Africa<br />
<strong>Nestlé</strong> is committed to boost<strong>in</strong>g<br />
healthy diets <strong>and</strong> lifestyles to help<br />
people achieve <strong>and</strong> ma<strong>in</strong>ta<strong>in</strong> a<br />
healthy body weight <strong>in</strong>to adulthood<br />
by promot<strong>in</strong>g the importance of a<br />
balanced diet <strong>and</strong> regular physical<br />
activity. Our latest Healthy Liv<strong>in</strong>g<br />
Africa campaign, launched <strong>in</strong> <strong>2015</strong> <strong>in</strong><br />
Central <strong>and</strong> West Africa (CWAR), supports <strong>our</strong> nutrition, health<br />
<strong>and</strong> wellness strategy to enc<strong>our</strong>age people <strong>and</strong> their families to<br />
make healthier <strong>and</strong> balanced lifestyle choices.<br />
The campaign, which was promoted through the <strong>Nestlé</strong><br />
CWAR website <strong>and</strong> across social media channels, enc<strong>our</strong>aged<br />
consumers to eat less salt. Each week, a different theme<br />
focused on practical tips on how to reduce salt by mak<strong>in</strong>g<br />
simple <strong>and</strong> healthy lifestyle choices. People across the region<br />
were <strong>in</strong>spired to cook with less salt, discover lower salt<br />
recipes, make smarter shopp<strong>in</strong>g choices <strong>and</strong> taste food before<br />
season<strong>in</strong>g.<br />
The campaign reached more than 11 million people via the<br />
<strong>Nestlé</strong> <strong>and</strong> CWAR Facebook account <strong>and</strong> on the <strong>Nestlé</strong> CWAR<br />
Twitter feed through the use of messages, visuals <strong>and</strong> hashtags,<br />
such as #DidYouKnow <strong>and</strong> #HealthyLiv<strong>in</strong>gAfrica. Posts were<br />
also promoted <strong>in</strong> both English <strong>and</strong> French to help extend its<br />
reach, achiev<strong>in</strong>g thous<strong>and</strong>s of likes, shares <strong>and</strong> comments.<br />
Similar digital campaigns on other healthy tips <strong>and</strong> good eat<strong>in</strong>g<br />
habits led by <strong>Nestlé</strong> CWAR will be rolled out <strong>in</strong> 2016.<br />
