START is a public health campaign from Safefood, the Departments of Health in Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland, Healthy Ireland, the Health Service Executive and the Public Health Agency.
The START campaign looks at seven ways that can help maintain a healthy weight for our children:
- Eat fewer treat foods
- Drink water and milk as regular drinks
- Give the right portion size for children
- Eat more fruit or vegetables.
- Be more physically active
- Limit screen-time
- Increase sleep-time
