aso.org.uk/news/aso-response… Horrendous news. The loss of an outstanding service. Leaves people living with obesity in the region with no support moving forward. Does not recognise obesity as a life long relapsing disease. Condolences to all affected including the Liverpool team

We have responded to the disappointing & worrying news that the Aintree LOSS (Tier 3) pathway is to be decommissioned ➡️ aso.org.uk/news/aso-response… We call for the decision to be reversed & encourage people with obesity living in the region to complain to @lpoolcouncil & their MPs.

Thank you to all the organisers of #UKCO2023. Prevention and treatment of Obesity and other health related conditions should remain a priority for both children and adults. Weight related stigma and inadequate funding remains a barrier. We all have a role to play.
