Our services
Weight Management
Our multi-component Weight Management programme supports participants to lose weight in a safe and sustainable way. Mapping to NICE guidance and other frameworks it is delivered in the heart of communities by local authorities, leisure providers, employers and others.
It enables bespoke local delivery of a world-class programme achieving clinically effective outcomes at commercial weight management prices.
Diabetes Prevention
Our Diabetes Prevention Programme (DPP) supports people with pre-diabetes to reduce their risk of developing Type 2 diabetes by making sustainable improvements to their diet, activity and weight.
It is the only DPP selected by both the NHS England, Public Health England and Diabetes UK Healthier You National Framework in England and HSC in Northern Ireland.
Diabetes Remission
Building on DiRECT, our Diabetes Remission programme supports people with Type 2 diabetes to achieve remission.
Designed for both in-person and remote delivery, we combine a low-calorie diet with a three-stage behavioural intervention, digital support and secure primary care communication.
Healthy Eating
Nearly 11% of all preventable diseases in the UK are caused by a poor diet, which is slightly more than caused by smoking!
Our light-touch, flexible Healthy Eating intervention is for people who might not need, or be ready for, a full weight management programme.
It separates fact from fiction and supports participants to make healthier, informed choices around what they eat and drink.
Getting Active
The most widely recognised physical activity guidelines globally recommend that, as a minimum, we should be doing at least 150 minutes of moderate intensity physical activity per week.
With a focus on reducing sedentary behaviour and moving more, Getting Active supports people to build activity into their daily lives by exploring the health benefits of different types of exercise, learning essential skills to make sustainable changes and discovering local activity opportunities.
Exercise Referral
Our Exercise Referral programme combines structured education with practical physical activity. It is designed to build or restore people’s confidence and enjoyment in leading as active a lifestyle as possible, despite any limitations.
Designed for delivery from both fitness / leisure and community or primary care settings, it helps participants find new and sustainable ways of being active after referral from their GP.
Smoking Cessation
Our Smoking Cessation programmes follow the NCSCT’s Standard Treatment Programme.
Enhanced behavioural support is supplemented by pharmacotherapy protocols enabling both referral and direct supply of Nicotine Replacement Treatment (NRT).
We also offer Harm Reduction, including NRT and e-cigarettes.
Value-Added Services
Since 2003 our team has actively supported hundreds of implementations internationally, ranging from small pilots to multi-service integrated healthy lifestyle contracts. We have worked with diverse organisations – from individual health clubs to local, regional and national public health teams – to implement, manage and sustain behavioural lifestyle interventions in their communities.
We have learned a lot and are happy to share. As a result, many clients ask us to provide a range of value-added support services.
