Campaign launched to get public healthy this summer

Public Health England (PHE) has launched the latest ‘Better Health’ campaign today [Monday July 26] to encourage adults across the nation to lose excess weight, eat more healthily and get active this summer.

The new campaign offers free evidence-based support and guidance to those working towards a healthier weight. There are a variety of NHS endorsed apps which will help people to introduce changes that will help them eat better and get active this summer, including the newly updated NHS Weight Loss Plan app.

New research, published shortly Public Health England, suggests that those who used and followed the NHS Weight Loss Plan app over 12 weeks, reported a loss on average of almost a stone (5.8kg).
