Would you benefit from a Tailored Remote Service?
We offer a range of tailored groups, delivered remotely so you can access the programme from the comfort of your home, through Microsoft Teams:
These groups may be suitable for you if;
– You require a British Sign Language Interpreter
– You have a hearing or visual need
– You need a language specific group (Bengali, Urdu, Punjabi, Gujarati)
– You are a woman with a previous history of gestational diabetes
What are the benefits of a Tailored Remote Service?
If you think the dynamics of an in-person group session may be difficult for you, due to the noise, or difficulty reading a screen from a distance, a tailored remote group through Microsoft Teams may be for you.
Additionally, we also deliver language specific groups, for example in Urdu, Bengali, Punjabi, and Gujarati, so if you would prefer to attend a group in a specific language, a tailored group could suit you.
Finally we also deliver groups designed specifically for women with a previous history of gestational diabetes; which includes specialist information.

The initial assessment will take around 40 minutes to complete and will be either via phone or email. You can tell us which day(s) of the week would be best for you.
