This trial is testing an online program called the Community LITE Programme, designed to help children aged 6–12 who are overweight develop healthier habits around eating and physical activity. The program involves the whole family and is delivered online, making it easier for families to participate from home. Researchers want to see if this program can reduce children's weight and improve their overall health over time.
Childhood obesity is a growing health concern, and families often need support to make lasting changes. This trial exists to test whether an online, family-based approach is an effective and practical way to help children achieve and maintain a healthier weight.

If you join, your child will be randomly assigned to either start the program right away or wait 6 months (control group). Those starting right away will participate in the online Community LITE Programme for about 4–5 months, alongside standard care from their doctor. All families will be checked at 6 months and again at 12 months to measure your child's weight, waist size, blood pressure, eating habits, and physical activity level. The program focuses on building healthier family behaviors together, delivered through an online platform.
