Good Places, Better Health for Scotland's Children - published

Good Places Better Health is reaching the end of a 3 year prototype phase and we are pleased to able to publish "Good Places Better Health For Scotland's Children" on behalf of the Evaluation Group today on the topics page of the Scottish Government Website, Health and Social Care:

http://www.scotland.gov.uk/Topics/Health/good-places-better-health/Recommendations (scroll down left hand menu at the bottom)

You will also find evidence assessments and related information on the four identified health challenges facing children in Scotland:

• obesity
• asthma
• unintentional injury
• mental health and wellbeing

May we also take the opportunity to thanks partners and individuals who have supported GPBH from early scoping exercises in workshops, leading on individual workstreams and contributing in various ways to help shape the final recommendations.
