Weight Concern - Addressing the Physical and Psychological Health Needs of Overweight People

Research
Weight Concern carries out research into the causes, prevention and treatment of obesity. Current research activities are focused on establishing a controlled trial of the charity's childhood obesity treatment, which aims to show if the treatment programme: is consistently effective for a larger numbers of families continues working over a number of years is more effective (and cost effective) than the current practice of giving dietary advice to parents The charity has run a successful pilot of this method of treatment. The controlled trial is necessary, however, if the treatment is to be made available through the NHS. For more details, follow the link below. Links:
