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). These projects can be up to a value of £25,000.

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.
