The TastED Food App pilot project was developed to encourage families in rural Bridgend to change their food purchasing behaviour by raising awareness of the benefits of using local produce. At the same time, the App helps families make health and lifestyle changes by preparing healthy meals, monitoring calorie intake and spend on food. Claire George, a lecturer at Bridgend College, Pencoed initiated this innovative project, assisted by Toby Harris, an app developer who also lectures there.
