Mr Heath wanted to lose weight after being told his blood pressure was dangerously high, and Mrs Heath wanted to lower her medication for diabetes and high blood pressure. She has now come off the medication.

Mr Heath said: "'Our caravan holidays are so much easier and more enjoyable now I can move around quicker and with less effort."

Mrs Health added: "The support from our consultant, Karen, and other group members has been very inspiring each week. Everyone helps you to find solutions to problems or challenges and there are always different ideas to keep you going too."
