Families will be encouraged to follow the example of the Olympics and get active as part of a new anti-obesity campaign in Wales.

Ministers hope around 1,200 hours of summer sports coverage on TV will inspire people to take part in Games4Life.

Recent figures show more than a third of children are overweight.

An activity book includes advice on using household objects to create games.

Despite efforts to tackle childhood obesity, official figures suggest the problem is not going away.
