these environments
- The

- Future Work
- Reducing obesity and improving
nutrition are high on the public
health agenda, as set out by the
recent White Paper
- Obesity, once developed, is difficult to
treat, and prevention programmes
aimed at children and adolescents are
considered a high priority as there is a
high risk of obesity persisting into
adulthood
- The work will
meet the
following
objectives
- To record the dietary
intake and physical
activity levels of a
crosssectional sample of
16–18-year-olds
- To explore qualitatively specific
factors related to their environment
and urban space which enhance and
limit their healthy food choices and
physical activity
- To record the dietary
intake and physical
activity levels of a
crosssectional sample of
16–18-year-olds
- Reducing obesity and improving
nutrition are high on the public
health agenda, as set out by the

- Built Environments
- Physical
design
- Land use patterns
(residential,
