The Synchronised Nutrition & Activity Program (SNAP^TM) is a novel web-based tool which simultaneously collects information on dietary intake and levels of physical activity in children aged 7 to 16 to look at energy balance related behaviours which impact on health and childhood obesity.

The software has been designed to address the need for a quick, inexpensive, flexible, interactive and enjoyable method of assessing energy balance related behaviours across a range of age groups and abilities. For more information about SNAP^TM, please click here.

The program can be used by individual schools, local education authorities or multiple consortiums of schools and for research by academics, public health organisations and government agencies. If you are interested in finding out more about SNAP, please contact the SNAP^TM team.

This assessment software has been developed by a research team from the Food, Physical Activity and Obesity Group at Durham University. For more information about the history and development of the SNAP^TM software, please click here.
