GoKids Boston has received a Champion award for its work in helping to prevent
childhood obesity.
GoKids Boston is partnered by US company Sportwall International, which researches, develops and manufactures the interactive equipment distributed by ZigZag in the UK.
The relationship has helped GoKids develop an approach that combines interactive gaming with nutrition lessons, educational tutoring and leadership skill building.
The centre works with organisations where rates of obesity and low physical activity are disproportionately common, such as schools, community centres, YMCAs, youth clubs and hospitals.
