The Role

If you are enthusiastic about helping people live healthier, happier lives, join our small supportive team as a Healthy Lifestyles Advisor!

As a signatory of the ‘Why Weight?' Pledge this Service works together to create healthier environments where more people can eat well, feel well and be active. The pledge promotes a compassionate approach to weight and highlights how the conditions in which we are born, grow, live and work can affect our health.
