We are committed to ongoing evaluation of the impact of weight management services. The National Obesity Audit, due to be launched in 2022, will collect patient level information and analyse robust comparative data from the different types of services which support people to manage their weight. This will include assessment of the efficacy of children’s tier 3 weight management services.
