Healthy Early Years London (HEYL) is an awards scheme funded by the Mayor of London which supports and recognises achievements in child health, wellbeing and development in early years settings.
Building on the success of Healthy Schools London, HEYL will help to reduce health inequalities by supporting a healthy start to life across themes that include healthy eating, oral and physical health and early cognitive development.
HEYL complements and enhances the statutory Early Years Foundation Stage framework.
Awards are given to settings to recognise their achievements in supporting the health and wellbeing of the children and families they work with.
There are 3 levels of award:
Bronze: settings will need to demonstrate they take a whole setting approach to health and wellbeing including physical activity, nutrition, oral health, emotional wellbeing, safety and immunisations
Silver: settings will need to identify the main health priorities for the children and families they work with and devise new projects, practices and interventions to address these needs
Gold: settings will need to implement their silver action plan and demonstrate the impact of the activities they have implemented
