The HENRY approach
HENRY adopts a unique and highly effective way of working with parents which supports them to provide a healthy start in life for their children – we call this ‘the HENRY approach’.
The HENRY approach was developed in response to an identified gap for a practical intervention that would deliver the key evidence-based messages contained in Tackling obesity through the healthy child programme – a framework for action.
