Organised by Children and Young People Now

A One-Day Conference | 17 November 2008 | Ibis Hotel, Earls Court, London

“Children are one third of our population and all of our future.” - Select Panel for the Promotion of Child Health, 1981

We all understand the importance of our contribution to the wellbeing of our children and young people, but it’s easy to become overwhelmed by the tidal wave of issues about children’s health service provision. 

The inaugural Children and Young People Now conference on children’s health looks beyond the theory to provide you with practical ways of implementing strategies to improve the health and wellbeing of children and young people.

  • Avoiding ‘Us And Them’: Explore ways of knitting together central and local actions to successfully fulfil your multi-agency working obligations 
  • Healthy Weight, Healthy Lives: Separate the myths from the facts to understand the nature of childhood obesity and help young people make positive, healthy choices to secure their own good health
  • Building Emotional Resilience: Examine ways of raising the profile of emotional literacy in schools and teaching children core skills for emotional resilience
  • The Truth About Sex: Are we asking the difficult questions about sex and teenage pregnancy? Young people speak out about how to overcome the taboos and break down the barriers in sexual health provision
  • Substance Abuse: Employ an integrated approach to positively educating young people on the dangers of drink and drugs and fulfil the objectives of the Government’s Substance Misuse Strategies
