Fuel for Living

Physical Activity and Food are key national priorities in tackling inequalities in health and the obesity epidemic.

The Department of Health West Midlands is working to ensure effective communication and co-ordination across the region and have established Physical Activity and Food Networks.

The PAN WM (Physical Activity Network West Midlands) and Food WM Networks seek to ensure that practitioners in the region have a comprehensive source of information on national and regional priorities and direction as well as providing opportunities to enhance knowledge, enable learning and improve practice.

The website will provide information on the wide range of programmes across the region and provide resources, tools and links to help share ideas and promote discussion.

If you are involved in regional work addressing physical activity, sport, food and health or obesity you may wish to sign up to either the food and physical activity networks. Please visit the relevant sections of the site for more details of how to join.
