SUMMARY:Sweetness\, social norms and schools: factors influencing children and young people's food and drink practices
DESCRIPTION:Childhood obesity is a major public health concern and sugar consumption is believed to be a significant contributing factor. Potential interventions include: restrictions on the marketing of certain foods to children; the introduction of a ‘sugar tax’; and prohibiting the sale of caffeinated energy drinks to under-18s. But will any of these ‘solutions’ actually work? This seminar will attempt to explore this complex issue using insights from three recently completed studies: \nThe social and economic context for young people’s food and drink purchasing in and around secondary schools – Dr Wendy Wills\, University of Hertfordshire \nEnergy drinks: hype or hyper? A mixed methods study on children and young people’s consumption of energy drinks – Dr Shelina Visram\, Durham University \nIs a sugar tax likely to be feasible\, acceptable and effective in the UK context? – Dr Victoria McGowan\, Teesside University \nLunch to be provided. Book now\, places are limited.
