Trafford’s Reception Age Children make remarkable healthy weight progress

Children living in our most disadvantaged communities are more likely to be living with overweight or obesity. However, this year we have seen important improvements, with the differences in the prevalence of excess weight between our most and least disadvantaged children now virtually eliminated in reception aged children.

Paragraph 9.ii Report on Trafford Public Health Submitted to Health Scrutiny 30th September 2024

Trafford Children have made remarkable progress this year in maintaining a healthy weight. This bucks national trends so is a testament to all the effort that’s being put into this.

Superb news, well done!
