Please note: MoreLife has replaced the interim tier 2 adult weight management service delivered by Slimming World.

Camden and Islington patients can be referred or self-refer to MoreLife for weight management support.

The scheme provides a psychologically informed 12-week programme. Participants will have access to weekly, group-based weight management sessions at a local community venue or online via Zoom, plus additional support in between group meetings if required.

Patients will be supported to make gradual changes towards a healthier lifestyle by a dedicated weight management practitioner.
