Strongly promoting early intervention and prevention strategies through breastfeeding developments and the HENRY (Health Exercise Nutrition for the Really Young) programme, which helps families with very young children develop skills around healthy eating and leading an active lifestyle. Making every contact count – and ensuring that the Brief Intervention Training – Raising the Issue of Weight - is well attended by a variety of local professionals Strengthening our Healthy Schools Programme to help support schools in becoming natural hubs of health & wellbeing, including targeting evidence-based interventions in schools where they are most needed. To help tackle these issues we are working closely with early years settings and schools:
The Governing Body are asked to: Ensure commissioning plans address the risks of child obesity and related disorders including diabetes Include maternal obesity within service specification for commissioning of maternity services Actively promote the brief intervention training for families, to enable GPs and other health professionals to raise the issue of weight and offer brief interventions, ensuring that every contact counts. Promote the forthcoming childhood obesity pathway
