GPs can prescribe weight loss jabs on the NHS from today - but strict eligibility criteria in place

Why you can trust Sky News GPs will be able to prescribe weight loss jabs on the NHS from today. - with strict criteria for the first year of the rollout. Initially, only those with a body mass index of over 40 who have at least four other health problems linked to obesity will be eligible. 0:21 Some doctors have raised concerns about the additional workload this new programme will bring, while pharmacists fear it could lead to supply shortages. While an estimated 1.5 million people are now taking weight loss drugs across the UK, they could previously only be accessed through specialist services or private prescriptions. Dr Claire Fuller from NHS England said: "We urgently need to address rising levels of obesity and prioritise support for those who are experiencing severe ill health - and greater access to weight loss drugs will make a significant difference to the lives of those people." She added: "While not everyone will be eligible for weight loss drugs, it's important that anyone who is worried about the impact of their weight on their health discusses the range of NHS support available with their healthcare professional." 1:22 The chairwoman of the Royal College of GPs welcomed NHS England's decision to pursue a phased rollout, and said current workloads must be factored in to ensure the jabs can be prescribed safely. Professor Kamila Hawthorne went on to say: "While weight loss medications have a lot of potential benefits for patients who are struggling to lose weight and who meet all the clinical criteria for a prescription, they mustn't be seen as a 'silver bullet' to aid weight loss. "We also need to see a focus on prevention, stopping people becoming overweight in the first place so they don't require a medical intervention later." 9:19 Her remarks were echoed by the National Pharmacy Association's chairman Olivier Picard, who says "prescribing these medications alone misses the point". He argued that they need to be part of a comprehensive strategy that includes lifestyle coaching, exercise and nutritional guidance - but many GPs currently "lack the bandwidth" to provide this support. "As a result, we could end up in a situation where patients are prescribed the medication, lose weight, and then experience rebound weight gain once the course ends - simply because the foundational lifestyle changes weren't addressed," Mr Picard added. Estimates suggest about 29% of the adult population is obese.

Grow a Garden: The surprise Roblox gaming hit

If people discover they love virtual gardening, might they be encouraged to take up the real thing? Andrew K. Przybylski, a professor of human behaviour and technology at the University of Oxford, said it was possible the game could "plant a seed" that could lead to a passion for plants. But, overall, he's sceptical. "It is unlikely that a game like this will encourage real world gardening any more than Super Mario Wonder encourages plumbing," he told the BBC. Prof Sarah Mills of Loughborough University has carried out research into the experience of young people and gaming. She highlights a key appeal of Grow a Graden is it is free to play, but the in-game currency is important. "This wider landscape of paid reward systems in digital games can impact children and young people's experiences of gaming and financial literacy," she said. "It can also cause challenges for many families to navigate, changing the nature of pocket money." Gardening podcaster and BBC presenter Thordis Fridriksson, meanwhile, is hopeful that any interest in gardening is a good thing. "Obviously the whole process is pretty different to real life, but it taps into the same thing which makes gardening so addictive, and that's planting seeds and watching your garden grow. "Fingers crossed some of the people who love the game will try growing something at home." Outside the living room in Edinburgh where they play the game is Owen and Eric's actual garden, which both boys help in. "I like gardening - and gardening in Grow a Garden," says Owen. But asked which one he prefers, he's emphatic: "Grow a Garden!"

The UK summer festival kit list — luxury edition

Everyone knows that people who attend festivals in the UK aren't messing around. A feeble Californian unused to the elements, I turned up to my first UK weekender head to toe in all the wrong clothes. Where I should have brought warming but chic layers, I came with bare shoulders and no jacket. Where I should have researched fashionable but supportive shoes, I turned up in dainty sandals. Where it might have been wise to pack both a raincoat and a sunhat, I brought only trendy (and hardly UV safe) sunnies. As the rain whipped around me, the mud caked my ankles and my feet throbbed, I was cursing the Coachella influencers who had inspired my outfit. Instead I should have been paying attention to the clever way that the UK's fashionable festivalgoers weave together form and function to make sure they have the best time possible while still bringing personal style into the equation. It's a tricky line to navigate. Sure, you'll need sensible shoes. But the good news is there's never been a cooler array of sensible shoes on the market. Sure, you'll need a raincoat — but what if that raincoat was made by the queen of fashionable festival attire herself, Alexa Chung? Of course you'll want a hat to protect yourself from the sun, but what if that hat could take you from the soggy glades of Glastonbury to, say, the sizzling beach clubs of Monaco? Whether you're in the enviable position of sleeping in a luxury camper van at a glamping site or are kicking it old-school and camping next to your favourite stage, here are the festival staples that will have you looking and feeling your most luxurious. • This article contains affiliate links that can earn us revenue Possibly the most important festival accessory is a great pair of sunnies. These from eyewear king Tom Ford are the perfect blend of trendy and practical, with their 1970s-inspired shape. Strap them on a chain like this one from Loewe for extra safety. This will keep them from flying off in the mosh pit. Tom Ford, £413 My favourite formula when it comes to festival dressing is wearing a fun top with comfortable bottoms. This top from the LA-based brand Staud has jaunty sequins, a little bit of a structure and a neutral enough colour that it will go with everything, even a pair of Adidas shorts. Staud, £330 Same goes for this glitter printed number from the French brand Courrèges. It's comfortable but still has personality — and is also a nod to the early 2000s styles that have been creeping back into the fashion landscape over the last few years. Courrèges, £180 There is no one who has more successfully nailed the chic festival aesthetic than Alexa Chung. This is why her line at Barbour is the perfect choice for your festival kit. It's made with the brand's waxed cotton, which will keep you dry in a downpour, but it's lightweight enough to make sure you don't overheat. It also comes in a jolly yellow bright enough that your friends will never lose you in the crowd. The Edit by Alexa at Barbour, £319 Miu Miu has entered into the activewear space and done it very well. Among the brand's new, more unexpected offerings is a fleece sweatshirt. The oversize fit and thick material mean it'll keep you cosy when temperatures inevitably drop in the evening. Miu Miu, £1,800 This top from Pucci is a great way to bring some colour into your look. Bring along your favourite bikini top to go under the shirt and you're in business. Pucci, £270 This flouncy dress from the LA-based brand Doen will balance perfectly with the chunkier pair of shoes you will inevitably have to wear. Think how nice it will feel not to have to squeeze into a pair of trousers on day three. Doen, £268 These need no introduction. They're the king of festivalwear and the best way to protect your trotters when the rain starts falling and the ground turns to slurry. This model has an update on the classic Hunter look with a mid-calf height and a tiny platform. Hunter, £168 This cropped reversible jacket has the unmistakable Burberry check on one side and a solid green on the other, meaning you get two outfits for the price of one. It's lightweight and will help keep you protected from the wind in the chicest way possible. Burberry, £1,250 Brunello Cucinelli clothes and a music festival may feel like unlikely companions, but this ribbed polo is a jaunty red and made of a resilient and warm cotton, making it a perfect companion for your festival excursion. Brunello Cucinelli, £990 A good pair of denim shorts will take you far, and these from Agolde come in five different washes. They are the perfect length, sitting just above mid-thigh, which is most flattering. Agolde, £180 Celine's classic frames are a surefire way to stay looking glam throughout the festival, plus the brand's shades are made of a thicker, sturdier acetate, so they're a more reliable bet for a day involving lots of jumping around. Celine, £340 For something with an open toe but a bit more support, try Bottega's new sandals. These have sturdy leather straps and chunky soles to help keep your feet secure as you stomp between shows. Bottega Veneta, £770 Jacquemus has been making fashionable summer headwear for years. The French brand uses chic but sturdy materials like denim and canvas, and many of its hats include an attached strap — a practical element not to be sniffed at! Jacquemus, £220 For something more lo-fi but still just as comfortable, try a pair of trainers from the new brand Hatty. These British-made, vegan and vintage-inspired trainers are designed by the siblings Harriet and Lewis Houlgrave, who just happen to be third-generation shoemakers. If it's looking to be a dry weekend, opt for their cheetah print model. The gum soles and supple materials mean that these babies will keep you dancing all night, no problemo. The shoes arrive in a beautiful silver box, which also includes a card explaining how to tie a perfect bow with your laces. Handy. Hatty, £165 If you get organised enough to change into a pair of pyjamas (rather than flopping face down in your party gear), make sure they're extra luxurious. Eberjey is known for its uber-cosy pyjamas, and its (machine-washable) silk PJs are particularly fabulous. Opt for the new Casa del Sol collection, which was co-created with the actress Eva Longoria for a particularly summery-feeling combo. Eberjey, £270 If you're someone who tends to get cold at night, why not bring along one of Burberry's hot-water bottles to keep your toes warm. Burberry, £320 Comfort is king, especially towards the end of the festival, but that doesn't mean you can't look polished too. Prada's jogging bottoms have both a drawstring waistband and cuffs, meaning they will be not only a roomy solution, but also a stylish one. Prada, £1,010 Whether you're shuffling around your tent or braving a communal shower, The Row's flip-flops will keep your feet comfortable while also semaphoring your style pioneer status. The Row, £670 Augustinus Bader is the skincare brand used by those in the know. Its products are chock full of the powerful TFC8® technology, which was invented by Dr Bader to aid in skin renewal — something you will be in desperate need of. The starter kit offers the brand's skincare heroes in a collection of minis. Augustinus Bader, £210 This suncream combines skin care and protection, formulated as a hydrating serum with broad spectrum UVA and UVB protection. It also has a dewiness to it that will give you a nice sheen and it's tinted — great for those looking for a more minimal make-up look. Emma Lewisham, £50 There's nothing more annoying than the sense that a monster spot is percolating under the surface of your skin, especially when the last thing you have time to think about is a proper skincare regime. The ZIIP dot is your best friend in moments like this. The circular device, designed by the celebrity facialist Melanie Simon, is small enough to fit in the palm of your hand, but it emits micro currents that when glided over your spots help to reduce inflammation, swelling and tackle bacteria. ZIIP, £169 This primer will do everything you need for the festival. It will give you a glowy sheen, it will moisturise, and it will help blur imperfections without making your skin feel heavy. It's an all-rounder that also layers well if you need to do a mid-day top up. Vieve, £39 There's nothing more annoying than not having your phone handy to capture all the action. This case from Bottega is made of rubber, which will keep your phone safe from spills, and has a strap attached, so you can hang the phone off your person or even whirl it around your head with joy. Bottega Veneta, £200 You will spend half the time looking for the friends you've lost. Even worse is when you get lost with a phone battery that's rapidly decreasing, because then you may never see any of your friends again. Come prepared with a portable phone charger, and a chic one at that. Hermès' version is covered in supple calfskin leather and has wireless charging capabilities so you don't have to carry around any pesky cables. It also has a useful analogue gauge on the front to tell you exactly how much power is left in the bank. Hermès, £680 The Eyes water bottle is the perfect festival companion. Fun and functional, it keeps drinks cool for 24 hours and warm for 12, so it can carry your morning hot drink and then later help keep you cool and hydrated. Anya Hindmarch, £45 Sometimes you just can't bring yourself to stand in an endless line for a refresh on your drink. Solve for this by packing yourself a handful of tinned cocktails like these from Ghost Lab. Not only do they taste delicious, but they also feature light combinations like gin with grapefruit, lychee and cucumber, or vodka with espresso, cascara cherry and guarana. Plus the sleek silver packaging will act as an extra accessory. Ghost Labs, £18 It's almost a 100 per cent guarantee that you won't be eating as mindfully as you might like to during a multiday festival experience. Increase your protein intake (the key to managing a hangover) by supplementing with Louco's protein powder before you head out for the day. It's been specifically designed for women's health and will help you keep dancing for longer. Louco Health, from £24
