Research on obesity prevention in early life is growing, with studies demonstrating some obesity prevention interventions to be efficacious.  The translation of this research into ‘real world’ interventions however is limited, yet this is fast becoming a key focus of government and funding bodies. This presentation draws on findings from two evidence-based early years interventions - INFANT and Healthy Beginnings and factors influencing sustained delivery at scale.
