See a Dietitian

These are one-to-one sessions with our health promotion dietitians, offering individual help and guidance that combines nutrition and behaviour change advice to promote a healthier lifestyle. Ongoing support and activities are provided across the city.

You can ask your GP or practice nurse to refer you to our adult weight management programmes - just ask them to use the referral to health form or the online Refer-all system. If you would like to talk to us about the programmes please contact the Healthy Weight team on 01273 431703 or This email address is being protected from spambots.

If you need help to manage your weight, ask your GP for a referral to one of our Health Promotion Dietitians. If you would prefer to join one of our group programmes, providing nutrition information and a light activity session, then our Shape Up groups are for you.

Stopping Smoking If you have stopped smoking and are keen to maintain a healthy weight, ask your GP or your Smoking Cessation Advisor for a referral to our Dietitians, who can help you establish healthy eating patterns.

Please note: our community-based Dietitians specialise in weight management for those of a healthy weight (if quitting smoking) or for people above their ideal weight. If you are underweight or have any other (medical) conditions requiring the advice of a Dietitian, please ask your GP for a referral to the Dietitians at your local hospital.
