Local Health and Care Planning: Menu of Preventative Interventions

Public Health England has published a menu of public health interventions to improve people’s health, support quality improvement and save money. Preventative health interventions are included from across the public health sector including alcohol, tobacco, diet, diabetes, falls and physical inactivity.

Interventions for physical activity described in further detail are the delivery of effective advice on physical activity in clinical care and increasing active travel for staff, patients and local populations.

The document outlines evidence-based, preventative public health interventions that can help improve the health of the population and reduce health and care service demand in the short to medium term.
