Childhood obesity is a growing public health challenge both in the UK and globally. In England, recent data shows that approximately 26.8% of children aged 2 to 15 are overweight or living with obesity, with around 9.6% of reception-aged children and over 22% of Year 6 pupils living with obesity. Worldwide, around one in ten children and adolescents are living with obesity, and one in five are classified as overweight, highlighting the scale of the issue.
Isolation and lack of connection are significant challenges for children today, with research showing that over one in ten children report feeling often lonely, and this is linked to poorer wellbeing, relationships and mental health.
Healthy eating is vital for children’s growth and long-term health, but nutrition education is declining while exposure to unhealthy food marketing influences children’s food preferences and can undermine healthy choices, meaning children need teaching and support to understand proper nutrition in a world saturated with persuasive advertising.
At 360 Vision, we aim to break down barriers to accessing all forms of health and wellbeing, including positive movement and engaging games that build confidence, character, respect and team spirit.
By ensuring our funding goes directly to where it is most needed, and by making additional activities as accessible as possible through our in school provisions, we work to reduce the barriers faced by families experiencing financial pressures or time-based constraints, so more children can benefit from positive, healthy opportunities
Afterschool clubs
Exciting and varied activities throughout the week!
Through 360Vision School Clubs, we can maintain relationships and affirm positive teaching year-round with the children we support.
Early success builds:
- Confidence
- A growth mindset
- A proactive approach to goal-setting
- Problem-solving
This then creates a cycle of continuous improvement and achievement for your child.
Whether through activities focused on building physical fitness or learning how to cook and prepare healthy and nutritious food, responsibility teaches accountability and the importance of making thoughtful decisions.
These are vital traits in both academic and career settings, helping your child build their self-esteem for the future.
