Reverse The Trend Foundation
Description
Reverse The Trend Foundation (RTTF) offers an innovative approach to reverse the trend of childhood obesity and promote the wellbeing of children. RTTF has worked with neuroscientists to develop a pioneering intervention focusing on creating healthy habits for children, RTTF partners with schools, family services and public health departments to encourage a whole school approach to embed these healthy habits. Its pilot campaign worked with over 18,000 children and families across the UK and recorded significant change in habits, including a 22% increase in the regular consumption of fruit and vegetables and a 45% increase in afterschool physical activities. Support from The Fore will enable the founder to develop the first contracts with clinical commissioning groups and realise RTTF?s ambitions for growth.
