ABOUT THE ORGANISATION:
The Health Promotion Board’s (HPB) vision is to build a nation of healthy people. We want to empower residents in Singapore to attain optimal health, increase their quality and years of healthy life, and prevent illnesses, disability and premature death. To achieve this, HPB drives national health promotion and disease prevention programmes, and creates a supportive environment in Singapore where healthy lifestyle options are available and accessible to residents every day.

Key programme areas include active ageing, physical activity, nutrition, substance abuse and mental health. The initiatives cover the general population segments from children to seniors, as well as targeted outreach initiatives to ethnic minority groups and disadvantaged groups (such as those from lower socioeconomic status).
