The catering team at Sligo University Hospital is celebrating after its commitment to creating healthy menus for staff and visitors won top honours at a national ceremony.
In total, 21 healthcare facilities across Ireland, providing healthier meals for almost 18,000 health service employees, were honoured this year at the Happy Heart Healthy Eating Awards for their commitment to healthy food choices.
Fifteen units across the country, including the Sligo town facility, achieved gold awards for creating a healthier food environment.
Two sites received silver awards for their meal choices, while four were bronze winners.
The Happy Heart Healthy Eating Awards have been running for over 25 years, and are a joint initiative of the Irish Heart Foundation and the HSE.
