Sir – It is no wonder that there is a huge obesity problem. It starts at a young age.

Councils are selling sports fields for their own benefit/profit.

State schools have fewer, if any at all, physical education lessons, so what do people and ‘health officials’ expect?

Children are fast learners and activity is vital at that age. They have an infinite reserve of energy and can enjoy activities.

It’s not all about eating healthier either. If a child has no incentive to play outside or do any sports, the brain idles and can cause depression. When you are depressed, you eat more, fact.
