Podcast: World Obesity Day 2025

To mark this year's World Obesity Day we produced a special podcast to explore why it's important to shift the focus of policymakers from individual responsibility to more systemic change.

The episode features Kat Jenner, Director of the Obesity Health Alliance, Sophie Harris, a diabetes and GIM consultant at King's College Hospital, Dr Stuart Flint, Associate Professor of the Psychology of Obesity at Leeds University, and our Food Ambassador Penny Walters.

It is presented by Food Foundation Executive Director Anna Taylor.
