Update on Tirzepatide for weight management
On 23rd June 2025, it was announced that people living with obesity will be able to begin accessing tirzepatide (Mounjaro®) for weight loss purposes in primary care settings. However, the national roll out does not mean all people will be able to get a prescription for tirzepatide (Mounjaro®) on this day.
Weight management services are locally commissioned at an Integrated Care Board (ICB) level. In mid and south Essex, access to tirzepatide will initially be through specialist weight management services only. Access to tirzepatide (Mounjaro®) through primary care is not expected to start in mid and south Essex until later in 2025.
NHS Mid and South Essex ICB has provided information on tirzepatide on its website - Visit the website for more information.
Stop Smoking
My name is Alexa Young
Smoking causes one in four of all cancer deaths in England and kills up to two-thirds of its long-term users. It is estimated that smoking costs the country £21.3 billion a year in England. This includes an annual £18 billion loss to productivity, through smoking related lost earnings, unemployment, and early death, as well as costs to the NHS and social care of £3 billion.
You’re far more likely to quit smoking successfully with the right support.

NHS Talking Therapies
The NHS is encouraging anyone struggling with feelings of depression, or anxiety such as excessive worry, panic attacks, social anxiety, post-traumatic stress, or obsessions and compulsions, to seek help through NHS Talking Therapies services. These are effective, confidential and free treatments delivered by trained clinicians, online, on the phone, or in person.
If you live in England and are aged 18 or over, you can access NHS talking therapies services for anxiety and depression.
A GP can refer you, or you can refer yourself directly without a referral.
NHS talking therapies services offer:
-
talking therapies, such as cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), counselling, other therapies, and guided self-help
-
help for common mental health problems, like anxiety and depression
