Frequently asked questions
Who is eligible for support from Feel Good Suffolk?
Are there any particular services that FGS is not able to provide?
There are a number of support services that FGS does not support. They include:
• Prescription of weight loss and or smoking cessation medication
• Administration of weight loss injections
• Support for those wishing to undergo bariatric surgery
• Counselling and therapeutic services
• Clinical interventions or advice
Can I refer on someone else’s behalf?
Anyone can refer themselves using the Get Support referral form on the FGS website. Health professionals can refer on someone else’s behalf, but there are some variations that apply. GP practices in Suffolk (non-Waveney practices) can refer a patient using a simple DXS form on SystmOne. Waveney-based practices, and pharmacy teams should continue to direct people to the self-referral form.

There are over 200 volunteer-led walks across Suffolk. Details of upcoming walks that you can join can be viewed at:
