Woolworths' virtual store supports World Diabetes Day
Woolworths will once again mark the occasion of World Diabetes Day on 14 November 2011, with a month of activities to help raise awareness of this disease and the important role nutrition plays in helping to control it. As part of these activities, it is launching an online virtual store tour led by dietician, Maryke van Zyl, to help diabetics and their families learn more about making better food choices.
"We introduced our dietician-led tours to mark World Diabetes Day last year. They proved so popular that we are doing them again this year. Places on the store tours are limited, so we've produced an online version that anyone can access at any time," explains Zyda Rylands, MD of Foods at Woolworths. "Health is part of our Good Food Journey and our commitment to offering our customers tasty, healthier choices."
Store tours will be held at the following stores on Tuesday 15 November from 10am to noon.
- Cavendish
- Tygervalley
- Westville Pavilion
- Menlyn
- Sandton
