SLIMMING WORLD ONLINE

Working with the Royal College of Midwives to develop its policy, Slimming World is the only national weight management organisation to support women through every stage of their pregnancy - from pre-conception to post-natal care. For pregnant women, the focus is not on weight loss, but on healthy lifestyle changes, with the support of their midwife. Our priority is a happy, healthy mum-to-be!... Slimming World was founded in Alfreton, Derbyshire in 1969 by Margaret Miles-Bramwell, who remains the driving force behind the company today... Slimming World now works in partnership with a range of health providers and we currently have around 90 weight loss referral schemes in place. The cost of these is subsidised by Slimming World. Studies show that NHS patients who are referred lose an average of 4% of their body weight in 12 weeks; this increases to 5.5% for those who attend at least 10 out of the 12 sessions.
