Steps to Your Healthy Future.’ Now ‘Cuppa Squad.’

Cuppa Squad is the brainchild of Kate Walker, who found there was a shortage of ongoing practical advice and support for people who had been diagnosed with conditions such as type 2 diabetes, prediabetes or obesity. 

Determined to help those in this situation, Kate’s idea was to set up a free service in the community that offered easy-to-follow health and lifestyle guidance. Just as important, people would be able to socialise and share experience with others in a welcoming and relaxed environment.   

Today, Cuppa Squad holds friendly tea and coffee sessions and one-off events in a growing number of communities. Recommended by GPs and social prescribers, every session is well led and there are always healthcare professionals present to give individual advice.
