Scotland

We want to see Scottish Government fulfil their 2030 poverty and childhood obesity targets. Our 2020 report summarises the evidence and outlines our priorities.

Today’s children will very quickly become tomorrow’s parents, patients, leaders and workers who drive the Scottish economy. If we all work together to create an environment which nurtures and produces a population of physically healthy and mentally resilient children, we will create an exciting and vibrant country for us all to live in.
