Watch now! Childhood Obesity event recordings

02 August 2023
In March 2023, we hosted an event which explored the data and potential policy options for achieving the Scottish Government's childhood obesity ambition by 2030. The event was split into two sessions which each have their own recording below.

PART 1: The first session focused on data and trends in childhood obesity in Scotland and included presentations from Lorraine Tulloch, Dr Anna Pearce from University of Glasgow, and Anna Taylor from the Food Foundation.

The slides for the presentations in Part 1 are available to view here.

*Please note, Maree Todd is no longer the Minister for Public Health, Women's Health and Sport.

 

 

PART 2: The second session focused on interventions needed to achieve the ambition, specifically looking at price, availability and the out of home food environment. The session included presentations from Lorraine Tulloch, Prof Cesar Revoredo-Giha from Scotland’s Rural College, Barry Norris from Bristol City Council, and Dr Gillian Purdon from Food Standards Scotland.
