Size Inclusive Health Promotion and Healthcare

Our Health Promotion team has been working towards a size inclusive approach to health promotion since 2021.

We want to support organisations and community to create more inclusive and equitable environments for everyone including larger bodied people. We have developed the Towards Size Inclusive Health Promotion resource to support our approaches to promoting health and wellbeing.

View our Size Inclusive resource for more information.

We also commissioned researcher Jo van Twest Farmer to lead a project engaging both our community and staff to explore current practices around size inclusive healthcare. This report captures stories, evidence and recommendations to guide BHN moving forward.
