Professor Rachel Batterham, RCP special adviser on obesity and chair of our advisory group on nutrition, weight and health, responds to Unicef's report, The State of the World’s Chil

In the run up to Brexit, we’ve written to the Prime Minister, along with 16 other health organisations, calling for healthcare to be at the heart of EU exit negotiations.

Uncertainty has been the theme of the past few months, as it became clear that the EU exit deal Theresa May’s government negotiated would not make it over the necessary parliamentary hurdles.

The RCP has responded to the 2018/19 Welsh government evaluation of health and care winter resilience 2018/19.

The RCP has today published its response to the Welsh government consultation on Healthy Weight: Healthy Wales, its draft strategy to prevent and reduce obesity.

The RCP is taking the unusual step of writing to all MPs asking them to vote against the UK leaving the EU without an agreement, to protect patients.

In his latest video blog, Professor Andrew Goddard explains why the RCP has called on the government to recognise obesity as a disease.

As a 12-week consultation period begins on the new Welsh government obesity strategy, Lowri Jackson, RCP head of policy and campaigns (Wales), discusses the key aims of the plan and the complex challenge of preventing and reducing obesity in Wales.

Stephen Hammond, the health minister with responsibility for Brexit, gives an update on the government's preparations for a 'no deal' exit from the EU.

Other conditions with a lifestyle component, such as lung cancer, are recognised as a disease, so why not obesity? Doing so would focus attention on improving prevention and treatment, rather than telling those with obesity to ‘try harder’, says Professor John Wilding.
