The incidence of obesity and diabetes, and concerns about digestive health, are increasing rapidly. And yet, while obesity is now responsible for more deaths than hunger, one in nine people in the world struggle to find enough nutritious food to eat every day.
We have set ourselves three targets to support healthy living by 2025
The global pandemic has shone a spotlight on the importance of supporting healthy living. It has enhanced peoples’ understanding of the benefits of good nutrition, taking regular exercise and mental wellbeing. So we’re pleased that we continue to make good progress towards meeting our 2025 targets.
✓ In September 2024 we met our 2025 target of 9million tonnes of sugar removed from people’s diets, the equivalent to 36 trillion calories
✓ 121,000 people supported with health, nutrition and wellbeing programmes (2025 target: 250,000 people)
✓ 73% of people felt that ‘Tate & Lyle actively supports their health and wellbeing’ (2025 target: 90% of people)
