APPG on Obesity launches Parliamentary Guidelines Monday 2nd March 2020

The APPG has endorsed and launched a set of guidelines designed to support Parliamentarians to speak openly and constructively about obesity, either in public or with constituents.

These guidelines have been produced by Dr Stuart W. Flint of the University of Leeds, Scaled Insights and Obesity UK. These guidelines have been reviewed by the APPG on Obesity and supported by the secretariat of the APPG on Obesity. The secretariat of the APPG on Obesity is funded by financial support provided by Novo Nordisk, Medtronic and Johnson & Johnson. These companies have had no influence over the content.
