What do I need to do?
Put your thinking hats on and be creative! Think of an idea for a new product or service that would help young people and their families to take part in a healthier lifestyle.
You’ll have to do some research to find out what products and services already exist and what people think of them.
Once you’ve come up with your really fantastic idea, find a way to present all your findings, thoughts and ideas in an electronic format – anything goes as long as it is not on paper.
