Training and Awareness

We are working with leading experts in tackling childhood obesity, Carnegie Weight Management (CWM), to run an exciting programme of events and information sessions throughout 2010 and early 2011.  These will focus on how we can help children who are overweight to make simple lifestyle changes that will make a big difference – as well as how to access the support they need to achieve their goals.

The FREE public training and awareness sessions are open to parents, carers, family members and young people themselves and will be held in venues right across the Sheffield district. Fun, friendly and participatory, the sessions will be a chance to find out all about the subject of childhood obesity and arm attendees with practical support, information and advice to help make a positive difference to the health of their families.

CWM will also be delivering a number of professional training sessions for anyone who works with children. These sessions are available to individual workplaces and will consist of brief, core and enhanced information sessions.
