Update: Please note the 2019/20 JSNA has been superseded, but reports have been retained on open data for reference purposes. Access the latest JSNA reports here.

Childhood obesity can effect an individual’s health and well-being for the long term and is also a predictor of adult obesity. Brent has a higher prevalence of obese school children leaving primary school at 26% compared to the London and England average.

This report is part of the JSNA (Joint Strategic Needs Assessment) which looks at the current and future health and care needs of the local population. The JSNA explores the wider social factors that impact a person’s health and wellbeing, to inform the commissioning of health services within the borough.

A list of all JSNA reports can be found on the Brent Joint Strategic Needs Assessment 2019/20 open data page.
