What a great piece Mallika. It nails the issues perfectly. It endorses many of the points that Sheila Dillon made in the Food Programme episode I heard recently on childhood obesity and two initiatives in Leeds and Amsterdam that tackled this issue. As you say targets, accountability and joined up thinking are all critical to ensure success in these initiatives. Well done for synthesising all the main challenges into such a cogent article.

Thanks so much Mike. Sheila was in touch and that episode is next on my list. It was a great event and the speakers were excellent. Glad I could summarise it all succintly!
> thank you for being here and being so patient with me!
Well, actually I like a post every once in a while. As much as I try, I still have a lot of sources (too many?) I read, on various topics, and I tend to like a good read once in a while rather than a high number of posts.
However, do as it pleases you :-) And I'll keep your great posts in my inbox until I read them — a pleasure, as always!
