Meet our health coaches

A key part of your Digital Adult Weight Management Programme is the opportunity to have one to one coaching sessions with our qualified team. The number and length of your coaching sessions depends on your programme level; but we will work with you to find a schedule that fits in around your commitments and lifestyle. 

Your coaching sessions are delivered by telephone and our team will call you at your appointment time. To get the most from your sessions, we ask that you update your weight reading in the App and bring a copy of this along with you to let your coach know how you are doing.  It would be great if you could also write down a couple of points you want to discuss with your coach or any questions you may have.
