Veg Power – Bang in Some Beans – Autumn 2026

This programme helps schools and caterers to increase beans in schools, and parents to increase fibre consumption at home from September 2026.

Veg Power is on a mission to increase the UK’s veg, fruit and bean consumption and has revealed details of its Bang in Some Beans schools’ programme for primary and special schools launching in Autumn 2026. It has also urged caterers and schools to join them to help improve dietary health.

Focusing on fibre, as a topic to capture parents’ attention, the programme will support increased bean and pulse uptake with Veg Power pledging to help schools and caterers to increase more bean-based meals on the menu from this September.
