Conference 2009

FAU Conference 2009 Press Release

The Advertising Association’s Food Advertising Unit (FAU) debated all sides of the obesity issue at its 12th Conference, held at “Altitude”, Millbank Tower in London on 26th November.

The key message emerging from the day was that industry, advertisers and government had embraced and made much progress with the obesity debate, but there was still more to do. A sense of collaboration between all parties (political and commercial) was another key theme. There was agreement that obesity levels in the UK are still high, although the consensus was that it is levelling off.
