Description
Katy Sutcliffe set out a 2026 Cochrane protocol for a qualitative synthesis on weight care for groups often left out. The review asks what is known about behavioural weight programmes for people with mobility limits, intellectual disabilities or severe mental illness.
Five goals cover lived experience of weight and programmes, barriers and helpers for healthy weight, and how carers view support in the protocol plan. Access, communication, cost and programme fit receive close attention for each group. Findings will guide kinder, more reachable weight services. The team says the synthesis will shape how such reviews are run from now on.
