For both Coventry & Warwickshire

Complicated Excess Weight (CEW) service is dedicated to supporting children, young people, and families in identifying and managing any health problems associated with excess weight. Examples include impaired glucose tolerance, type 2 diabetes, sleep apnoea or problems with mobility. The CEW service is for those aged one year up to the child’s 16th birthday. Support duration ranges from 12-24 months dependent on the level of support required. Referrals can only be made via a Paediatrician and not via the child’s GP. Please note, this service has limited capacity, therefore consider additional services available across Coventry and Warwickshire. CEW service will only accept referrals through secondary/ tertiary care, i.e. they have to be seen, assessed by and kept in the care of a Paediatrician (as CEW is only a time-limited intervention addressing complications).
