The theme for this year’s Happy Heart Eat Out is ‘For a Happy Heart... Think Small’ highlighting the need to focus on smaller portion sizes which are good for the waist and for the heart.
The campaign encourages establishments to provide dishes that are:
- low in fat, sugar and salt
- rich in fibre, fruit and vegetables
The campaign is a partnership between the Irish Heart Foundation, safefood and the HSE .
For more information please download the Caterer Leaflet.
The aim of the campaign:
to encourages hundreds of restaurants, cafés, pubs, hotels and workplaces nationwide to provide heart-healthy choices on their menus this June and encourages customers to just ask for healthier choices when eating out.
For good health it is not just the quality and variety of food that is important, how much we eat also matters.

Posters
Table tent cards
