Join Health and Wellbeing Queensland (HWQld) on Tuesday 19 August 2025 at the Brisbane Convention and Exhibition Centre at the 2025 A Better Choice Conference, which will explore how to deliver healthier food and drinks in schools, sport and recreation and healthcare facilities. 

This exciting biannual event, which will be offered both in-person and online, will bring together audiences from schools, sport and recreation, and healthcare sectors looking to provide healthier food and drinks in their settings.

The event will feature a full-day program of educational and informative sessions, as well as an exhibition featuring suppliers of healthy food and drink options, and other support services relevant to the audience.

Through the conference theme ‘Creating healthy food environments for all Queenslanders’, the program will feature opportunities to learn how to market healthy options and boost revenue or profits, work with volunteers and engage with stakeholders. Learning will be supported by successful case studies to equip attendees with the skills and knowledge to create environments that promote and prioritise healthy options. 

Hear directly from others who have successfully made healthy changes and network with fellow attendees, speakers, partners and exhibitors (suppliers, manufacturers, producers and distributors).
