FEAST Project - Survey

Down’s Syndrome Scotland has been involved with the FEAST project, coordinated by Heidelberg University, and with active participation from the Sant’Anna School of Advanced Studies in Pisa and the University of Gastronomic Sciences in Pollenzo, the aim is to make it easier for all people in Europe to eat healthier and more sustainable food, with a particular interest in vulnerable populations. Within the scope of the project, they aim to actively involve individuals with Down’s Syndrome and their families to gain deeper insights into the nutritional and metabolic challenges they face that require special attention. For this purpose, two questionnaires were designed, one for the person with Down’s Syndrome and one for their caregivers. The results will be used to inform the European Commission on the special needs of persons with Down’s syndrome regarding food to support the design of new policy from which they can benefit.
