Session format: Presentation

With two in five children overweight or obese by primary school’s end—and rising rates of inactivity, type II diabetes, and health inequalities - future pressures on health services are mounting. Adults face similar health challenges, putting a strain on our health system. Across the UK, cross-sector stakeholders are coming together to address these challenges through innovative and collaborative approaches. This session will shine a light on great work happening in communities to improve health and wellbeing while tackling persistent inequities in partnership with residents.
