Tell Coke what you think of their marketing
Not feeling festive about the Coca-Cola truck visiting your city and handing out sugary drinks to the public and children? Here's some ideas of ways to get a different message out.
SUGAR SMART is a campaign of Jamie Oliver and Sustain to help local authorities, organisations, workplaces and individuals to reduce the amount of sugar we all consume and the current SFC feature campaign. We are up in arms about this – or up in wings, with many SUGAR SMART cities planning tooth fairy stunts to coincide with the coke truck's arrival.
We would love your help in the following ways:
1. Check if the truck is visiting your city at https://www.cocacola.co.uk/coca-cola/trucktour-2017/
2. Register to help out at https://www.sugarsmartuk.org/get_involved/volunteer/ This allows the local SUGAR SMART campaign to get in touch with you in the case they are organising a stunt.
3. Get the word out to all your friends and contacts. Follow SUGAR SMART on social media to get the latest news. Facebook: @SugarSmartCity Twitter: @sugarsmartuk

Children's Food Campaign: Better food and food teaching for children in schools, and protection of children from junk food marketing are the aims of Sustain's high-profile Children's Food Campaign. We also want clear food labelling that can be understood by everyone, including children.
