Why we started GoldenBites

We started GoldenBites because we kept noticing the same gap: seniors are told to "eat healthier," but that advice rarely accounts for the food they actually eat — hawker meals, home-cooked dishes, dishes shared across a lifetime of habit. We wanted something more concrete than a pamphlet: a small, repeated programme where seniors could see their own choices clearly, hear from a real dietitian, and try one realistic change — with someone sitting beside them the whole way.

Our mission

Many seniors know they should "eat healthier" but aren't always sure which everyday meals fall short on protein, calcium, vitamin D, or vitamin B12 — and generic advice can feel abstract when it doesn't reflect local hawker and home-cooked food. GoldenBites turns nutrition education into a practical, habit-building programme, using familiar Singapore food examples, large-print bilingual materials, repeated guided practice, and the Healthy 365 meal-logging app. GoldenBites is educational and does not provide medical diagnosis.

Our team

GoldenBites was founded by three co-founders from Eunoia Junior College.

Our partners

We run our sessions in partnership with Allkin, and our pilot is supported by the SG Partnerships Fund (SGPF Seed grant).
