It’s good to see local councils using the powers at their disposal to tackle obesity in ways that suit their communities. Central Government should do more, but it cannot do everything and other actors need to put their shoulders to the wheel. I hope other councils will step up…

Top peers at House of Lords writing a report into “the role of foods, such as ‘ultra-processed foods’, and foods high in fat, salt and sugar, in a healthy diet and tackling obesity”.

Such an important issue. Expecting punchy stuff.

Huge congrats to Knowsley Council 👏👏👏

Part of a growing movement of councils restricting unhealthy food adverts – championing children’s health where the national govt has failed to do so.

‘Given that 41% of such price promotions are on HFSS food and drink, both government and retailers ought to look at what can be done to ensure such deals are on healthier food and drink as part of efforts to report on and achieve a higher proportion of healthier sales’
