The incidence of obesity and diabetes, and concerns about digestive health, are increasing rapidly. And yet, while obesity is now responsible for more deaths than hunger, one in nine people in the world struggle to find enough nutritious food to eat every day.
We have set ourselves three targets to support healthy living by 2025
Every day, all over the world, millions of people enjoy products containing Tate & Lyle’s ingredients, which means we have a tremendous opportunity to support healthy living in everything we do. So we’re pleased we continue to make good progress towards our 2025 targets, helping to reduce the amount of sugar in diets, encouraging people to take more regular exercise and to look after their mental wellbeing.
✓ In September 2024 we met our 2025 target of 9 million tonnes of sugar removed from people’s diets, the equivalent to 36 trillion calories
✓ 121,000 people supported with health, nutrition and wellbeing programmes (2025 target: 250,000 people)
✓ 73% of people felt that ‘Tate & Lyle actively supports their health and wellbeing’ (2025 target: 90% of people)
