Gladsaxe: A family-centred approach to healthier childhoods

Supporting children’s health often starts with supporting families. For more than a decade, Gladsaxe Municipality has worked alongside families to build healthier habits at home. Support ranges from dietitian guidance and family conversations to yoga, mindfulness and well-being coaching, recognising that children’s health is shaped by the people around them. Between 2007 and 2020, the share of school-aged children living with overweight fell from 26% to 16%.
