Views still wanted on children's weight

Residents views are still being sought on how to manage children's weight.

A consultation was launched this month by the Department of Health and Social Care asking for peoples views on its new strategy to help keep Manx youngsters at a healthy size.

Officials want to know if there's any barriers which could stop the strategy from being a success - adding effective action to combat childhood obesity needs to be taken now.

Anyone wishing to put forward their views can do so by visiting the online government consultation hub before the deadline on Monday, September 30.
