change4life

Change4Life is a society-wide movement that aims to prevent people from becoming overweight by encouraging them to eat better and move more.

The Change4Life advertising campaign which began in 2009 and will continue in 2010 has made the subject of weight and physical activity a hot topic and urges us to make changes to our diet and levels of activity.

There's lots of information about the objectives of the Change4Life campaign on the official website: www.nhs.uk/change4life

The campaign also comes with some very useful toolkits, with ideas like swimming games for families and other hints and tips to inspire you to be more active.
