NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde provide a Community Weight Management Service in partnership with WW (the new Weight Watchers.)
If eligible for the service you’ll receive a free 12 week membership providing access to a blend of in-person and online support. You will be able to attend a weekly workshop for a check in with a coach who will support you on your weight loss journey. You will also get access to a timetable of virtual workshops, delivered online, by Coaches and a range of further support through the smartphone app.
If you regularly attend workshops and lose 5% of your body weight over the 12 weeks, you could be eligible for a further 12-week membership.
