TV Documentary casting call

 

We are developing a television series looking at the increasing number of obese people in Britain who are physically or psychologically unable to leave their homes due to their weight. We want to provide expert help, which can include the cost of surgery.

 

Perhaps you want to leave the house but feel there is no practical way, and can’t see how you might ever return to a healthy weight.

You might be stuck in the house and have been refused surgery or be on the waiting list but don’t know when the chance will come.

Perhaps you refuse to leave the house for psychological reasons and need the courage to go outside again.

 

                                         We’d like to hear from you.

  

We are also interested in hearing from parents of teenagers suffering from this condition, or carers/families/partners who are struggling to look after someone with the condition.

If you fit this description and wish to talk, please get in touch on:

 Selected participants will be supported through a very low calorie diet, beginning with a one week residential phase from 7th-13th August 2017.
