Description

Public Health England have awarded councils a ring-fenced grant to procure tier 2 weight management programmes (Appendix 1). Lifestyle tier 2 weight management programmes for overweight or obese adults are multi-component programmes that aim to reduce a person's energy intake and help them to be more physically active by facilitating behaviour change.

Wellbeing & Public Health is seeking to purchase provision of a range of tier 2 weight management programmes across a range of providers that run up until March 2022 (or June 2022 by arrangement with Public Health England). There is no specific format for these to be delivered and it is envisaged that Providers will deliver a unique programme of support aligned to their core business and informed by points in Section 5 and documents in Appendix 1.

Tier 2 weight management programmes, courses or clubs can:

• accept adults through self-referral or referral from a health or social care practitioner
• be provided by the public, private or voluntary sector
• be based in the community, workplaces or in primary care
• be delivered face to face, in person or via remote and virtual platforms
• are usually delivered at weekly intervals over a minimum period of 12 weeks for all persons assessed as eligible.
