The UK is the 3rd biggest market for eCommerce (behind China and the USA) – 87% of the population made an online purchase in 2020 (Opinions and Lifestyle Survey) with Smartphones overtaking tablets for the first time according to eMarketer. 92% of adults recently used the internet (ONS 2020), with the rate among those aged 75 years and over nearly doubling since 2013 to 54%. Coronavirus drove a surge in usage – we Brits now spend on average over 4hrs a day online (Ofcom 2020), with 1 in 3 watching online video more than traditional TV.

Obesity is a growing concern in the UK, with a quarter of the population obese (Public Health England) – levels are highest in the North East; lowest in London. High Fat, Sugar and/or Salt foods and drinks remain the target with an pre-9pm advertising ban being introduced in April 2022.
