Practice Training Dates & Bank Holidays

We’re aware that the recent national announcement about Mounjaro (tirzepatide) is generating significant public interest.

• Mounjaro is being gradually rolled out in GP practices as part of wider support for people living with obesity
• It is only available to a very limited number of patients in the first year, based on strict NHS criteria
• Eligibility includes a BMI of 40 or more and at least four serious weight-related health conditions (Type 2 Diabetes, Hypertension, Dyslipidaemia, Cardiovascular Disease, Obstructive sleep apnoea)
• Patients must also take part in a structured support programme (wraparound care) including healthy eating and physical activity
• Please do not contact your GP practice – eligible patients will be contacted directly by their practice or the NHS in due course
