Earn rewards for quitting smoking, staying fit and hitting your activity goals
There are lots of ways to earn points in BetterPoints Southwark for looking after your health and wellbeing, and making positive choices for your health.
Stop Smoking Rewards
Earn £50 by signing up to Southwark Council's Stop Smoking sessions and staying Smoke Free for 3 months.
At each session, and each step towards becoming smoke-free, you'll be given a QR code to scan or a referral code, which will earn you points. Becoming smoke-free, and staying smoke-free for 3 months means you can earn up to £50.
Healthy Weight Programme
The Southwark healthy weight programme is a 12-week, healthy weight, group programme. It aims for sustained weight loss or reduced waist circumference by making healthy lifestyle changes. You’ll take part in weekly group sessions for 12 weeks. Each session lasts 1 hour. You can choose weekday or evening groups.
There will be advice about:
- nutrition

- using behaviour change techniques
- physical activity
This programme is for:
- adults living in Southwark or registered with a GP in Southwark
- adults from a White background with a body mass index (BMI) above 30
- adults from a non-White background with a body mass index (BMI) above 27.5
Earn 12,000 BetterPoints for attending all of the sessions! Enough to earn you vouchers for supermarkets and homestores, hot drinks, gym day passes and much more!
