The nation’s health is on a steady decline with cardiovascular disease taking over as the leading cause of death in the UK. Many of the contributing risk factors are modifiable by adhering to a healthy and active lifestyle.

This research aims to investigate if imbedding the HEALTH Passport into the curriculum of secondary school students could equip them with healthy lifestyles choices, to be carried through to adulthood.
