The Childhood Obesity National Support Team (CONST), Strategic High Impact Changes document, captures the learning and evidence gathered from the CONST’s 44 visits to local health economies across the country. It translates this learning into what the CONST believe could make the greatest impact in addressing obesity in a local area.

Identifying four key areas for implementation, the document provides researched examples and references evidencing the potential impact of the suggested interventions.

This document is a summary of local views on good practice. The suggested approaches are not mandatory, and reflect learnings from a snapshot in time. Where there is clear established evidence to support interventions, this has been referenced. This document is offered as a useful resource for commissioners, its use is not mandatory.
