Consultation description
This consultation seeks views on a range of proposals to enhance health and wellbeing in Northern Ireland by focusing on improving diets, increasing participation in physical activity, addressing the obesogenic environment, and preventing the harm cause by overweight and obesity.
Any new strategy will need to be agreed by Ministers when they are in place, but through this consultation we are keen to hear a wide range of views and ideas to make our new strategy, and proposed interventions, even better targeted at the factors that will make the most positive difference.
