I want to be healthy

Children and young people tell us they want to learn more about how to have a long healthy life, to do more sports, eat well and for their friends and family to not smoke and drink too much, or
do drugs.

Our priorities are for children and young people to:

• Make positive lifestyle choices
• Lead healthier lives
• Feel good about themselves
