Complete health quiz and access free local support

Residents are being encouraged to take simple steps toward improving their health and wellbeing by completing the free NHS Healthy Choices Quiz, a quick 5 minute tool designed to offer personalised guidance on healthier living.

The quiz asks a series of questions about daily habits and lifestyle, generating an overall wellbeing score along with tailored advice to help people make positive changes. It is available at Healthy Choices Quiz.

Alongside the national quiz, Wulfrunians can also access a range of free lifestyle services through the City of Wolverhampton Council’s Live Well Wolverhampton programme, including support to lose weight or stop smoking.

Adults living with obesity who wish to manage their weight may be eligible for free, structured help via Live Well Wolverhampton. The service is open to adults who live in the city or who are registered with a Wolverhampton GP. Eligibility criteria apply, and referrals must be made via a GP practice. More information is available at Lose weight.

Live Well Wolverhampton also provides a 12 week stop smoking programme, offering personalised support from trained advisors, delivered either virtually or face to face, along with access to quit aids such as vapes. Any adult smoker living in Wolverhampton or registered with a city GP can access the service. Details can be found at Stop Smoking Support in Wolverhampton. Residents can also text QUIT to 07378 768046 to begin their quitting journey.

Councillor Obaida Ahmed, Cabinet Member for Health, Wellbeing and Community, said: “We want everyone in Wolverhampton to have the opportunity to live a healthier, happier life. Tools like the Healthy Choices Quiz make it easier for people to understand where they can make small but meaningful changes, and our local Live Well services are here to support residents every step of the way.

“Whether you want to manage your weight, stop smoking, or simply get a clearer picture of your wellbeing, help is available and free to access.”
