Is it really a level playing field for the combined talents of highly skilled marketing teams to be pitching their products at young children without restriction?
We have an important opportunity to take forward our work tackling childhood obesity by persuading Chris Bryant MP to bring in a private members bill on junk food/ HFSS (high fat/salt/sugar) marketing and food labelling. Please take two minutes to complete his survey here: surveymonkey.com/r/5FTGNGW and show your support for the Food (marketing and labelling) Bill. This will help us to help reduce childhood obesity in the future. The survey closes on Tuesday so please vote now.
There are lots of activities happening to support this agenda but you can do your bit by trying to encourage our policy makers to prioritise action on food marketing and labelling. Clearer guidelines are in everyone’s interests.
