A campaign created by @OutsmartOOH to harness the power of advertising for healthy kids’ choices.

We want to get businesses and public authorities working together 🤝 to tackle #childhoodobesity using the power of #advertising!

If you're a public authority and are interested in what we have to offer, please contact us 📩here: [email protected]

Consuming a high fat & sugar diet contributes to #obesity which is linked to declines in brain performance and #diabetes. Children should be educated about #nutrition & #healthyeating as well as doing regular #physicalactivity to reduce #childhoodobesity

💥 Today is the 8️⃣th birthday of The #DailyMile! ✨

On this day in 2012, @Elaine_Wyllie and the children at @ST_NINIANS_PS ran the first ever Daily Mile. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

We’re so grateful to everyone who makes it possible for children to get active with our initiative - thank you. 💕🎥

#Diabetes is often associated with #obesity and both are big health risks in Wales. Read more here: https://t.co/H5Vlj9HRAE @BBCWalesNews #childhoodobesity

[GetSmartOutside @GetSmartOutside]

Great to see @GSTTCharity working towards reducing #childhoodobesity by increasing the access everyone has to #healthyfood. Their Everyday Takeaway programme with @shift_org provides families on lower incomes with affordable healthy options

[Impact on Urban Health @ImpUrbanHealth]

How are we designing environmental interventions for #ChildhoodObesity that work for real lives? Our long-read spotlights how we support several, sometimes very different, interventions in one place to make incremental, lasting change. Read here👉https://t.co/WpDyYlhWmD

[GetSmartOutside @GetSmartOutside]

Great to see @YouthSportTrust #HealthyMovers programme making #exercise fun for young children. Consistent #PhysicalActivity should be available for children of all ages and backgrounds as it is crucial for helping to reduce #childhoodobesity https://t.co/ZFeZE9jgYH

[Charlotte Petri Gornitzka @CharlottePetriG]

It’s time to push back on the rise of childhood obesity.

I’ve written for @wef to explain how we can and must put children at the heart of our food systems. #WEF20 https://t.co/QgbzM2sxn1

[GetSmartOutside @GetSmartOutside]

The @WHO have said #obesity is "one of the most serious public health challenges of the 21st Century". Successful actions to reduce #childhoodobesity won't just reduce age-adjusted BMI, but will also improve #Wellbeing and #mentalhealth @WorldObesity https://t.co/qD3OPAcUaG

[World Obesity @WorldObesity]

Just so happen to be interested in viewing #Obesity prevalence around the world? Or maybe you're a huge fan of maps?

Well we have interactive maps that show (you guessed it) obesity prevalence worldwide. Find these, and so much more, right here: https://t.co/M4EQ4JkASd

[GetSmartOutside @GetSmartOutside]

#Obesity, under-nutrition & #climatechange are the 3 causes that will bring about the "coming food industry apocalypse". Great article by @Forbes using @TheLancet's Commission Report. A new global food industry alliance is needed to help solve these issues https://t.co/bwUiHnjrN8

[GetSmartOutside @GetSmartOutside]

One way to reduce #childhoodobesity is more #physicalactivity and #exercise. It's great to see @educationgovuk funding schools to keep sports halls open during the holidays https://t.co/nwtD4iUBkr

[GetSmartOutside @GetSmartOutside]

One third of children aged between 2 and 15 are #overweight or #obese. @BiteBack2030 aims to half #childhoodobesity by 2030. One great way to do that is labelling all food with the "traffic light" system. Food labelling should be helpful, not misleading https://t.co/gWljcjS3Tn

[World Obesity @WorldObesity]

Children in the UK are consuming twice as much sugar than recommended, leading to tooth decay, #obesity and type 2 diabetes. #SugarAwarenessWeek highlights the importance in reducing our sugar intake @actiononsugar

[GetSmartOutside @GetSmartOutside]

The @SAfoodforlife #stateofthenation report found that 4 in 10 children leaving primary school will be #overweight or #obese by 2024. We should set ambitious targets for #healthyfood in schools, educate children about #nutrition and encourage regular #physicalactivity

[Bite Back @BiteBack2030]

You won’t believe this! 😱
It's national sugar awareness week, so we looked at the amount of sugar in a 500ml bottle of coke (which is 2 portions) it has more than twice the amount of sugar than two Krispy Kreme Cookies and Kreme doughnuts combined. Now that’s shocking! 🙅

[World Obesity @WorldObesity]

World Obesity support #sugarawarenessweek. The UK is unlikely to meet the World Health Organization target of halting the rise of childhood obesity by 2025.

It’s time to act @actiononsugar

[GetSmartOutside @GetSmartOutside]

Today is the first day of #SugarAwarenessWeek - sugar is a major cause of #weightgain and #obesity so let's reduce #childhoodobesity by reducing the amount of sugar we consume #healthyeating #healthyliving @actiononsugar

[sugarsmartuk @sugarsmartuk]

Fewer than 2% of packed lunches meet nutritional standards, with low presence of fruit and veg. This is why we ask schools to adopt healthy lunchbox policies and our sister project @VegCities promotes veg-ucation in schools. 🍏🥕 @sfmtweet @VegPowerUK
