Shape-Up is a free lifestyle programme for weight management. It is designed for anyone with weight and health concerns who wants a solution that will work for life.

Is it for me?

Shape-Up is for you if you are:

  • aged 18 years and over
  • overweight with a body mass index (BMI) over 25. To easily calculate your BMI please visit www.shape-up.org
  • willing to attend all eight group sessions.

How much does it cost?

Shape-Up is free.

A Shape-Up manual is available to buy or you can borrow it from any Camden library.

If you want to buy the manual please get £10 of exercise vouchers from any Camden library as the facilitator can't accept money.

What are the benefits?

The session will help you to:

  • balance the types of food that you eat
  • reduce your tendency to overeat
  • become more physically active
