Weight management scheme

• would you like help to manage your weight?

• would you like free one to one support over six months?

• are you ready to make some lifestyle changes?

What is the scheme and how does it work?

The weight management scheme is designed to initiate long term lifestyle changes to help you achieve and maintain a healthy weight.

The scheme is free of charge and encourages you to eat healthily and increase your physical activity levels.

You will be offered a series of personalised one to one appointments over six months with a weight management adviser in a local pharmacy. You will also attend an appointment with a dietitian, with the option of a further group dietitian session.
