We responded to the PHA's Children's Health in NI 2023/24 report - NI has highest level of obesity in Primary 1 children in UK - For those living in most deprived areas - data shows higher levels of obesity, lower breastfeeding rates and low birth weight rcpch.ac.uk/news-events/ne…

We need an anti-poverty strategy as a matter of urgency. Our children’s health matters. We need targeted public health campaigns to ensure rates of breast feeding improve and levels of obesity are addressed. #childhealthmatters
