Is Corporate Responsibility Part of the Problem
or Part of the Solution?
Around 25 of men and women in England are obese
and it is estimated that 1 in 3 adults will be
obese by 2010. Obesity is a major risk factor for
heart disease and diabetes, which cause around
300,000 deaths per year in the UK and claim
around 30 billion per year in healthcare and
lost productivity. Obesity is a lifestyle
disease caused by excess energy intake relative
to energy expended in physical activity. Thus,
the hypothesis that poor nutrition has
contributed to the obesity epidemic is
reasonable. In part this has been attributed to
the convenience lifestyle many of us, especially
young people, now lead. The food and drinks
industry has come under fire for both the
nutritional content of their products and for the
way they market their products to consumers. In
recent years large companies have invested
heavily in the community to encourage a healthier
lifestyle, have sponsored many worldwide
sporting events and have also helped set up
initiatives to encourage young people to make
wiser food choices and lead more active
lifestyles. The government too is urging more
companies in the industry to take on a higher
degree of social responsibility, but does this
investment make a difference to the health of our
nation and should companies be doing more as we
look towards 2012? The BASES 2008 debate, run
in the style of Question Time, will provide an
opportunity for corporate entities, to have their
say about their role in society and what they are
doing to combat obesity and promote healthy
living. Leading academics in the field of sport
and exercise sciences will also be present on the
panel to provide a scientific view on the health
of the next generation and make predictions about
what our nation will look like in 2012 and
beyond. The presenters will include Dr Helen
Munday (Director of Food Safety and Science Food
and Drink Federation), Prof. Tim Lang (Prof. of
Food Policy, City University London), Dr Andy
Ramwell (Director of Manchester Institute of
Sport and Physical Activity), Dr John Brewer
(Director of Communications and Professional
Relations, GSK Nutritionals) and Prof Craig Sharp
(Brunel Emeritus Professor).
