This paper outlines how the Scottish Government will use the resources identified in the recent Scottish Budget to improve the nation’s diet, encourage greater physical activity and begin to establish a base for tackling obesity through both targeted interventions and by supporting us all in achieving and maintaining a healthy weight. We have identified key life stages and settings in which we will act.
Scotland has made significant progress in recent years in reducing the number of deaths from chronic disease which has resulted in an increase in life expectancy. 1 However, there is concern that the impact of rising levels of overweight and obese people will reverse that progress.
