Obesity UK is the leading charity dedicated to supporting people living with obesity
About us
Obesity UK is a registered charity which operates as a membership organisation to represent the voice of people with obesity. Obesity UK members form a mutual support group and provide a valuable link between those who struggle on a daily basis and the healthcare organisations that provide evidence-based weight management services.
Our Mission
Obesity UK is committed to creating a society where obesity is understood, support is accessible, and stigma is eliminated. Through education, advocacy, and collaboration, we empower individuals and communities to improve health outcomes and drive lasting change.
Science and Reality can be friends.
