html practice

Again, quite a random blogpost, but I just wanted a little html practice...

NHS direct is designed to make a difference to the lives of people in England, 24 hours a day, 365 days of the year.

Booths

In order for me top have a little practice with a bit of multimedia - here is a google map showing all of the Booths supermarkets in Lancashire.

Booths, 'the great Northern supermarket is celebrating 160 years of trade and by doing so, the chain is releasing a book titled 'The story of Booths'

A little bit random I know.....but it's the joys of been a 'multi-skilled' journo!

My first Google Map

Here is as a map to show how a student would walk from Foster Building to Greenbank Building at UClan.

Who decides that your child is overweight?

A report recently published in the lep stated the horrifying statistic that 1 in 4 children starting primary school in Lancashire are overweight.

With such a shocking revelation has come the proposal to allow health chiefs to send letters home to parents telling them that their child is too heavy.

The strategy has its advantages as the aim here is to create healthier children, but obviously there is the issue of morality. In many situations, it's inevitable that some parents are going to be against this, as rightfully so, it is in theory the parents' job to decide.

Here I've spoken to a few Preston residents, asking them whether they think sending letters home is a good idea.
