Healthy Weight and Food Survey

More than 60% Rutland adults are currently classed as being overweight or obese. For children in their last year of primary school, the number is around 30%.

A person’s weight can be affected by a range of complex factors, including their genetics, social pressures, environmental considerations, psychological and behavioural traits. A more detailed understanding of what lies behind obesity rates in Rutland is therefore needed to help design support services that can tackle the causes.

The focus of the current survey is mostly on food and healthy eating and it takes around 10 minutes to complete. 

All responses are anonymous and the survey will close at 4.00pm on Friday 27 September.
