Change4Life
Change4Life aims to help families eat well, move more and live longer and it’s really important to our kids’ futures. But it’s also going to be fun! As Change4Life starts to grow, there will be plenty of brilliant things to get involved in. These will include events and activities, magazines and tasty recipe ideas, amongst many other things.
Change4Life will highlight to parents the links between weight and preventable illnesses and their responsibility to ensure their children eat better and take regular exercise. If we carry on as we are, 90% of today’s children could be overweight or obese by 2050. We all need to address the rise in obesity for the sake of the future health of our children.
The Change4Life advertising campaign began on Saturday 3 January 2009 – on TV, in the press, on billboards and online. On the Change4Life website you can find out about activities and events near you, get healthy eating tips for you and your family, and join up to get a free welcome pack.
