MEET THE FOUNDER

Claire King is the founder of The Nutrition Advisory Team, bringing together over 25 years of experience in primary education, leadership, and nutritional science to create meaningful change in how people engage with food, health, and sustainability.

A former primary headteacher for a decade, Claire is a strong advocate for a child-centred, whole-child approach to education, one that recognises nutrition, wellbeing, and food literacy as foundational to healthier, happier lives, not optional extras.

Her work is grounded in a deep understanding of how biology, behaviour, environment, and lived experience interact, and how, when these elements fall out of balance, both health and learning can suffer. Claire’s focus is on bringing these systems back into greater harmony to support long-term wellbeing, resilience, and sustainability.

Central to her work is the Eat, Move, Feel, Connect® framework — four essential roots of health that help people understand the relationship between what they eat, how they live, how they feel, and the world around them.

Claire is passionate about reconnecting people with local food systems, provenance, and place. Through her work, she supports access to whole food, strengthens local supply chains, and enables place-based knowledge exchange — helping both people and planet live well, for longer.
