SEF Feedback Report
National Obesity Observatory published the Standard Evaluation Framework (SEF) for weight management interventions in April 2009. It provides a set of core measures that should be collected before, during and after any weight management intervention, with supporting guidance both on evaluation and data collection methods. Since the SEF was published, feedback has been collected through a number of mechanisms. This document summarises those mechanisms and the nature of the feedback.
