Creative Development was commissioned by Staffordshire County Council to develop a new infrastructure and mechanism to address the intervention gaps and barriers to food and nutrition and physical activity for 0-5s within community assets.
Grow Up Great was a philosophy, product and platform, that developed into events, activities, and a website that saw key partners join together such as children’s centres, health visitors, and family support groups. It enabled our most vulnerable of families to be introduced to a wide physical and social activity offer, to support those in their care to have the best start in life, despite their determinants of poor health. This was achieved through using arts and creativity as tools to achieve physical activity solutions and outcomes, through consultation, community engagement and co-production.
