Purely Nutrition is a company specialising in nutrition education in schools. According to its own website:

PhunkyFoods is a curriculum-based independent programme which provides weekly lesson plans for each primary school year group. It has been successfully trialled since 2005 in over 100 schools across Yorkshire. [1]

As a result of those trials Purely Nutrition is embarking on a national programme with Supermarket giant Tesco. A press statement from June 2007 states "As part of Tescos community partnership's programme they are working with Purely Nutrition to develop a growing programme for primary schools. The scheme will be rolled out to 200 schools in September 2007." [2]

The genesis of the company was in pilot funding from Northern Foods. The next phase was underwritten by three food companies:

Now Northern Foods, Nestlé and Cargill will jointly support the programme which encourages healthier lifestyles by providing the funding for the scheme's expansion to a growing number of schools across the UK. Developed specifically for primary school children, the year-round programme helps ensure children learn fundamental life skills relating to nutrition, physical activity and food choice. All lesson materials are written and developed by independent registered nutritionists and consultant teachers and none of the funding partners have input into the programme content.[3]
