A new program is being offered in far west NSW to help tackle childhood obesity.
The Far West Area Health Service Bodywise program will focus on overweight children between the ages of seven and 12.
They will take part in a six-week physical and educational program under the guidance of a team of allied health professionals.
The health service says one in four Australian children are overweight or obese, with the problem often overlooked as the whole population is getting heavier.
