Family Weight Management

Our Family Weight Management Service supports you and your family to achieve a healthier weight and improve your overall well-being.

Our Family Programme

Our Healthy Lifestyle programme supports children aged from 4 to 17 years old, and their families. Our programme encourages children and young people who are above a healthy weight to eat healthier, move more and feel better.

Our fun-filled and child-focused programme is filled with exciting activities that will make your whole family feel happier and healthier.

This also gives you a chance to get involved. We will help your whole family build a healthy relationship with food and learn about the importance of looking after our minds and our bodies.

Science & Storytelling

At Morelife, we understand there’s more to health than weight, and there is more to weight than cutting portions and working out. Our programme explores lots of different elements that make up a healthy lifestyle.

We’ve combined science with storytelling. It helps keep children focused on the course and remember what they’ve learnt in a fun and engaging way.

Our one-of-a-kind programme is unique, with its mix of online support and physical activities. You and your children can learn more about healthy lifestyles in your local area while getting involved from the comfort of your own home.

The 12-week programme covers a variety of topics for both parents and children.
