Patterns and trends in adult obesity: national data

Published 26 February 2020

These PowerPoint slides present important data and information on adult obesity in clear, easy to understand charts and graphics. They have been produced by the Population Health Analysis team in the Health Improvement Directorate and can be used freely with acknowledgement to ‘Public Health England’.

These slides should be useful to practitioners and policy makers working to tackle adult obesity at local, regional and national level. For example they are regularly used to make the case for tackling obesity in presentations to health and wellbeing boards, other committees and to elected members as well as in regional and national conference and workshop presentations.
