answer text: In the last 12 months, the Department of Health has invested in the following programmes led by other Government Departments in promoting/supporting physical activity: £1.2 million on active travel (led by Department for Transport); £120 million on School Sports Premium (led by Department for Education); £23.5 million on School Games (led by Department for Culture Media and Sport); £150,000 to NHS Confederation to promote physical activity at workplace; and £150,000 to English Federation for Disability and Sport in the last three financial years (FY 2010-11, 2011-12 and 2012-13). Over the past 12 months the Department has spent £38.2 million on the Schools Fruit and Vegetable Scheme and the forecast spend for FY 2013-14 is £38.3 million. The overall budget for Public Health England's (PHE) Change4Life marketing campaign for the financial year 2013-14 is £11,945,000. Five-a-day and the encouragement of physical activity are integral parts of PHE's Change4Life campaign. It is not possible to break out the contribution to those two elements of the campaign. We are not aware of any scientific evidence directly linking the consumption of fruit and vegetables with mental health.
