Trafford Metropolitan Borough Council began the 'Healthy Meals in Schools' initiative following the publication of the Government's guidelines on healthy eating requirements for schools, and in consultation with parents, teachers, school meals staff and other local authorities. The objectives of the initiative were to ensure that healthy choices were always available and offered at the most economical price. This was a collaborative procurement between several Local Area Procurement Partnership (LAPP) members, which included: Bury; Bolton; Oldham; Salford; Tameside; Stockport; Trafford; Warrington; Greater Manchester Police; and Greater Manchester Fire and Rescue Service. Suppliers were invited to tender the provision of frozen food and grocery foodstuffs, following advertisements in 'Contrax Weekly' - the official journal for the EU, and in the 'Manchester Evening News'.
