Almost all the associations that organise outings for the elderly present them with extremely unhealthy snacks or meals.

As a result they either refrain from going or else risk eating the unhealthy snacks or meals and suffering the consequences. Actually, these outings are patronised by mostly middle-aged people and not the elderly.

I appeal to the Department of Health to monitor these organisations and prohibit them from serving unhealthy food.
