Making a healthy start
Help is available for parents to ensure they get their children off to a healthy start in life.

By giving children varied foods that are low in sugar and salt, as well as plenty of fruit and vegetables, and encouraging active play, you can make sure they grow up with strong bones, healthy teeth and do not struggle with obesity.

LHTP is funded by Public Health and supports and recognises achievements in child health, wellbeing and development in early years. It is delivered by health improvement practitioners within the public health team at Leicestershire County Council.
