For anyone with an interest in the current policy debate on advertising food to children and particularly those involved in healthcare, this publication is likely to be of real interest.

With a significant contribution to the discussion by Ofcom, Food Promotion to Children reflects key themes from Ofcom's consultation on food advertising to children. Issues discussed include latest thinking on children's interaction with the media, the role of advertising outside TV, meeting the needs of children, alternative approaches to food advertising regulation and approaches to the problem of childhood obesity.

The Westminster Diet and Health Forum (WDHF) seminar papers contain the text of all speeches made, together with transcripts of the Q&A sessions and additional articles from interested parties.
