Residents who overindulged during the festive period can get back to good health with help from NHS Sefton.
Free six-week weight management courses will be launched throughout the borough this month, highlighting the importance of being a healthy weight and setting realistic and managable goals.
The courses, which will involve a one-hour session each week will also improve skills in shopping for food, reading labels and healthy cooking options.
Information on nutrition and physical activity will also be offered, and those who attend can monitor their progress by being weighed each week.
Courses will be held in Southport, Formby, Ainsdale, Freshfield, Maghull and Bootle, and the first will kick off at Litherland Town Hall Health Centre on Monday, January 10.
To book onto the courses, call Healthy Sefton on 0300 100 1000.
