Cavan Monaghan Healthy Families aims to prevent and manage childhood obesity by providing parents and guardians with the skills and knowledge to provide healthier eating options for their families.
The programme will also focus on engaging children in enjoyable physical activities and looking after their emotional well-being.
The programme has been developed by a number of partners, including the HSE, the National Childhood Network, Monaghan Integrated Development, Monaghan and Cavan Sports Partnerships and Monaghan and Cavan County Childcare Committees.
