We aim to empower doctors with greater nutrition training, to become champions of nutrition in their local team. This will ultimately improve patient care directly through their changed practice, the greater focus in the team working with them, and reduce the pressure of inappropriate or unsupported referrals to dietitians.

Alongside this we will continue to use our findings, experience and publications to advocate for change in medical student and doctor’s training to have adequate levels of nutrition training.

We hope this will lead to greater focus on nutrition and lifestyle change to prevent and treat disease, supported by a trained healthcare workforce, working seamlessly between hospitals and the community.
