Primary Care
Dietitians across Leicestershire and Rutland provide education sessions for patients and the public. This can often be initiated by the Primary Health Care Team (e.g. group education sessions for people with diabetes) or can be at the request of support and voluntary groups. We are happy to consider all requests, but occasionally may need to charge for dietetic time depending on your organisation.
Please contact our Headquarters on 0116 222 7170 if you would like to arrange an education session.

Dietitians are involved in running groups for clients, as required.
