Princess Anne has called on families to educate their children about food during a conference at The Royal College of Physicians on Tuesday.<\/p>\n

Anne has been a patron of the British Nutrition Foundation since 1988 and regularly carries out engagements for the charity. <\/p>\n

The charity aims to give people reliable information on nutrition to families and young children by working with academics and food experts.<\/p>\n

During her speech, Anne emphasised that children are never too young to learn about food, saying: \u201cIt really does make a difference to raise that level of respect for nutrition at all levels, at all ages.<\/p>\n

\u201cFood education, wherever you’re coming from, should never be left out. It is part of the basic requirements of life, and it attaches to all sorts of other subjects.”<\/p>\n

The Princess is a supporter of the Foundation\u2019s Healthy Eating Week, where she visits schools to talk to students about where food comes from and the importance of eating well.<\/p>\n

The Foundation advocates for change to create a future where everyone can access a healthy, sustainable diet. <\/p>\n

Anne went on to acknowledge that with the wealth of knowledge available on the internet, there are a lot of resources for parents and teachers to educate their children about healthy eating, but it can be a challenge to get the message across to young people.<\/p>\n

She continued to say: \u201cWe all know that children’s taste buds don’t always match their parents, even with the best intentions.\u201d<\/p>\n

She went on to joke: \u201cI won’t tell you what I refused to eat, but it’s been largely consistent and I’ve got this far,\u201d which caused the audience to laugh. <\/p>\n

Later in the day, the Princess Royal travelled to the University of Hertfordshire to open the SPECTRA building.<\/p>\n

The new building is a \u00a3100million state-of-the-art School of Physics, Engineering and Computer Science area, which has been six years in the making.<\/p>\n

Anne recently revealed that she has come up with a trick to avoid a hazard that her brother, King Charles, often faces. <\/p>\n

Her solution was seen at the Rolls-Royce headquarters when the Princess Royal was invited to sign the visitors’ book.<\/p>\n

Before signing the book, she was informed that the Prince and Princess of Wales had written their signatures on it in 2012 during their visit to the Seletar campus.<\/p>\n

Avoiding a mistake often made by the King, Anne prevents any hazards with ink from faulty fountain pens by carrying a gold pen in her handbag.<\/p>\n

The King has a well-documented history of pen problems, including an incident in September 2022.<\/p>\n

During a signing ceremony in Northern Ireland, Charles said: “I can’t bear this bloody thing… every stinking time” after having to deal with a leaky fountain pen.<\/p>\n

Princess Anne is now preparing to host her annual Christmas tea party for The Not Forgotten Association at St James\u2019s Palace in London on Thursday. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Princess Anne has called on families to educate their children about food during a conference at The Royal…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":595130,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3940],"tags":[4080,77,5118,5105,16,15],"class_list":{"0":"post-595129","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-celebrities","8":"tag-celebrities","9":"tag-entertainment","10":"tag-princess-anne","11":"tag-royal","12":"tag-uk","13":"tag-united-kingdom"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/115616384703907782","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/595129","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=595129"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/595129\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/595130"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=595129"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=595129"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=595129"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
