Obesity Awareness Week (EDM1093)

Obesity Awareness Week

EDM number 1093 in 2006-07, proposed by David Amess on 12/03/2007.

That this House congratulates The Obesity Awareness and Solutions Trust (TOAST) for organising the annual Obesity Awareness Week (11th to 17th March 2007), designed to raise awareness of the multifaceted nature of obesity; welcomes the valuable contribution that TOAST has made to help those who are overweight or obese through its work, including providing training courses and practical advice and support; believes that more effective needs-led support services should be made available; invites the Department of Health to reconsider its decision not to assist TOAST with funding for such initiatives; and calls on the Government and other organisations and stakeholders in the field to support Obesity Awareness Week and join the fight against the rising tide of obesity in the UK.

This motion has been signed by a total of 55 MPs, 1 of these signatures have been withdrawn.
