Five Dinners: Free Meal Planning for Suffolk Families

 If you ever find yourself asking, “What are we having for dinner tonight?”, Five Dinners can take the stress out of planning and help you save money at the same time. Five Dinners is an online personalised meal‑planning service that creates weekly menus and ready‑made shopping lists, designed to make healthy eating easier and more affordable for busy families.

Each week, the service gives you five easy, family‑friendly dinner recipes, along with a shopping list that automatically adjusts to the number of people you’re cooking for. This helps reduce food waste, save time, and keep food bills down.

Five Dinners also includes instructional and support videos, step‑by‑step recipes, and options tailored to your needs—whether you want low‑cost meals, low‑calorie options, child‑friendly dishes, vegetarian choices, or quick and easy weekday dinners.

As part of the Feel Good Suffolk partnership, every Suffolk resident can access Five Dinners completely free for the year—a saving of £86. No bank details are required; just select your district council and enter your postcode to start using the service.

By planning ahead with Five Dinners, families can enjoy healthier meals, reduce the mental load of daily decision‑making, and stretch their food budget further.

Free Stop Smoking Support for Parents

If you or someone in your household smokes, there has never been a better time to quit. Not only is stopping smoking one of the best things you can do for your health and your family’s wellbeing, it can also make a real difference to your budget. On average, a person who smokes 10–20 cigarettes a day spends around £2,500 each year on tobacco. Imagine what that saving could mean for your household—help with bills, days out with the kids, or simply breathing room when money is tight.

Feel Good Suffolk’s Stop Smoking Service is completely free and designed to make quitting as easy and achievable as possible. Our friendly advisors understand the pressures many families are facing and offer non‑judgemental, personalised support that fits around your busy life.

You’ll get:

• One‑to‑one support from a trained stop‑smoking practitioner
• Free nicotine replacement options, including patches, gums, and vapes
• Practical tips to cope with cravings, stress, and triggers
• Regular check-ins to keep you motivated and on track
• Flexible appointments, including phone and online sessions

Parents who quit often tell us they feel healthier, more energetic, and more in control—not just financially, but emotionally too. Quitting doesn’t have to be all‑or‑nothing, and you don’t have to do it alone. Whether you’ve tried before or are thinking about it for the first time, we’re here for you.
