LEARN the best way to ditch bad health habits at a Oxford Brookes University talk.
Professor Dame Theresa Marteau will explore the less and more effective ways of changing behaviour to improve health.
She will argue that while informing people of the risks from their behaviour – on average – does not change it, informing them that it does not and why, could lead them to support things that would change their behaviour.
The free lecture will take place at the John Henry Brookes main lecture theatre, on Wednesday from 6pm.
