Research organisation Campden BRI is holding a seminar on 24 February to update delegates on the government’s Responsibility Deal.
The aim of the initiative is to get industry, health groups and individuals to work together to promote and improve public health. Event director, Sue Keenan, Campden BRI's information officer said: “Susan Jebb from the Medical Research Council Human Nutrition Research Centre will address the structure and requirements of the deal itself. The seminar will also cover aspects such as general calorie reduction and labelling issues, and consumer attitudes to health information. In particular, Dr. Philip Davies of Oxford Evidentia will present the findings of a Food Standards Agency-funded project on how consumers use information about food and healthy living, under the title Living healthy lives: whose responsibility is it?”
