January Health Campaign

The public health campaign for January focuses on ''New Year, New You – Sugar Swaps' and 'After School Snacks' to highlight National Obesity Awareness Week on 10th-16th January. Eating healthily by swapping to lower sugar alternative foods will help prevent tooth decay and gum disease and improve your overall health.
