North West London's Successful Type 2 Remission Program: REWIND
Since 2019, NWL has been running a highly successful type 2 diabetes remission program known as REWIND. The program has supported an impressive number of participants, with many achieving remission within one year. In addition, significant weight loss has been recorded among the participants.
The final cohort of patients will complete the REWIND program in June 2024, coinciding with the expiration of the contract with the program provider, XYLA. Unfortunately, we are no longer accepting new referrals due to recent developments.
The Emergence of a New Type 2 Pathway to Remission Program
NHS England has recently launched a national type 2 diabetes remission program, similar in nature to NWL's REWIND program. The success of this program, particularly its noteworthy weight loss outcomes at the one-year mark, has prompted its nationwide implementation. As an exciting development, this program will soon be available to people with type 2 diabetes who reside in NWL. Individuals registered with a GP practice in North West London, including Brent, Harrow, Hillingdon, Hounslow, Hammersmith & Fulham, Westminster, Kensington & Chelsea, and Ealing, will have the opportunity to join the program starting February 2024.
To stay informed about the availability and registration process for the new program, we highly recommend signing up for our informative type 2 remission emails by filling in the form at the bottom of this page.
