We won’t tell you what to eat but will help you understand how food and drink (including alcohol) affects your health and how you can make informed choices for your health and wellbeing.

We’ll get you started with a personal consultation to assess your circumstances and goals, followed by group workshops at leisure centres and other community facilities. Individual support is also available where necessary.

We also have a number of options to help you be more active, including access to our leisure centre facilities and activities such as touch rugby, football and Latin Dance.
