Public Health England (PHE) has published a suite of resources focused on promoting a healthier weight for children, young people and families.
These resources are intended to support health and care professionals to be consistent and provide a core set of healthy weight messages throughout the life course. This suite of resources is part of Public Health England’s All Our Health ‘call to action’ for health and care professionals.
Resources include:
- Consistent messaging infographics: Each infographic highlights the key evidence-based healthy weight messages for specific age or target groups.
- Consistent messaging slide sets: The aim of these slides is to be used as a training tool to inform workforce development. They provide detailed evidence-based healthy weight messages from preconception through to age 18 years.
- Child obesity animation: This animation demonstrates the vital role health and care professionals play in supporting children, young people and families to maintain a healthier weight from pregnancy through to the transition to adulthood.
