Tackling Obesity Through the Child Healthy Weight Programme: A Framework for Action.

This framework was commissioned to inform the development of the Department of Health’s work on obesity in early years.

It draws on some of the existing and emerging evidence on obesity and early years and sets out key actions for practitioners to effectively support mothers and fathers in encouraging healthy nutrition and physical activity. It identifies nineteen themes for action that have the potential to encourage the development of lifelong healthy lifestyle and reduce the risk of obesity.

This document was developed through exploration and critical review of the evidence relating to the early indicators of lifestyle development.
