Joint strategic needs assessments and joint health and wellbeing strategy

Who should take action?

  • Health and wellbeing boards
  • Directors of public health

Actions

  • Health and wellbeing boards, supported by directors of public health, should ensure joint strategic needs assessments (JSNAs) address the prevention and management of obesity. They should ensure JSNAs:
  • consider the full range of factors that may influence weight, such as access to food and drinks that contribute to a healthy and balanced diet, or opportunities to use more physically active modes of travel​
  • consider inequalities and the social determinants of obesity
    consider local evidence on obesity (such as data from the National Child Measurement Programme).
  • Health and wellbeing boards should ensure tackling obesity is one of the strategic priorities of the joint health and wellbeing strategy (based on needs identified in JSNAs).
