Luke Mangan will join sporting stars Harry Kewell, Cathy Freeman and Kieran Perkins in the Commonwealth Government’s campaign to tackle Australia’s obesity problem.

As a Healthy Active Ambassador, Luke will bring an expert perspective to promoting good nutrition, particularly among young people.

"I am pleased to be involved with this initiative. It is so easy to eat junk food but what’s even easier is to eat healthy food and live a healthy lifestyle," Luke said.

Luke is the executive chef of glass brasserie at the Hilton Sydney and is the originator of the Lexus Young Chef of the Year Awards.

The Government is pleased to have his involvement in this important program.

The Healthy Active Ambassador program is a Commonwealth Government initiative to combat the rising incidence of obesity in Australia. Other ambassadors will be announced as they are appointed.
