Obesity is growing at an alarming rate, with a significant impact on individuals, our National Health Service and society as a whole
UK Foresight report: By 2050, 60% of men and 50% of women could be clinically obese
• Health impact of obesity:– 58% type-2 diabetes– 21% of heart disease– 10% of non-smoking related
cancers– 9,000 premature deaths a year
in England– Reduces life expectancy by 9-
11 years.
• Costs of obesity:– National Health Service -
£4.2bn– Wider economy - £15.8bn– Foresight estimate costs to
economy of £50bn by 2050

Ambition
“To to be the first major nation to reverse the rising tide of obesity and overweight in the population by ensuring that everyone is able to achieve and maintain a healthy weight.
Our initial focus will be on children: by 2020, we aim to reduce the proportion of overweight and obese children to 2000 levels.”(Healthy Weight, Healthy Lives, 2008)

Why we need marketing to help deliver the ambition
People do not relate what they see or hear about obesity to their own situation• Only 4% of parents currently believe their child is overweight or obese
“I went to see the doctor and he said my daughter was obese. I thought: how ridiculous - she doesn’t even look fat !”
People do not appreciate the link between weight gain and health consequences• Only 6% of parents believe there is a link between obesity and cancer

Overarching insights from the qualitative research suggest we need to ‘reframe’ the issue for all families
Parents underestimate the amount they and their children eat and over estimate the amount of activity their family does.
Parents prioritise their children’s immediate happiness over their long-term health.
A host of ‘unhealthy’ behaviours have no perceived health risks to parents: e.g. sedentary behaviour, snacking, portion sizes.
‘Healthy Living’ is perceived to be a middle class aspiration which ‘at risk’ families believe is undesirable and/or unattainable.
While parents acknowledge childhood obesity is a problem they do not think of it as ‘their’ problem.

Once upon a time, life was pretty simple…
It could be hard…the food was pretty fast…but it could be fun if we caught our mammoth or bison or whatever…
Then gradually life changed…in many ways it got easier…
Nobody had to run around for their food… Or for anything else much for that matter.
Until one day we woke up and realised that 9 out of 10 of our kids would grow up to have dangerous amounts of fat in their bodies.
Which meant that they’d be more likely to get horrid things like heart disease, diabetes and cancer. And many could have their lives cut short
So we thought …that’s not more of a life…that’s less of a life, and that’s terrible because we love the little blighters
Maybe we should get together with our kids andEat betterMove moreLive longer
And change 4 life. And we all lived happily…not exactly ever after… but more ever after than we had done.
