London Borough of Harrow is working with Slimming World to offer a free 12-week weight management programme as a way to manage your weight and reduce the potential risk to your health.
- The course is free if you are aged 18 or above and your BMI is more than 27.5, and you are either a Harrow resident or registered with a GP.
- It is a 12-week course for which Slimming World offers weekly group support to help you make gradual changes towards a healthy lifestyle.
- Once the referral has been submitted through Joy, the client will receive a text to ask them to call Slimming World to register for their 12-week referral.
- Then the first conversation with the client will be a telephone conversation. During the call, the trained advisor will check you are eligible and discuss the weekly groups available in your area.
- Weekly groups are led by trained Slimming World Consultants, and you will get information and support through your weekly group sessions and the online mobile app.
- Your weight always remains confidential, and your weight loss and gradual changes towards a healthier lifestyle are celebrated.
