Used by the NHS

I am proud to say that my plates are used within many different departments of the NHS. Ever since developing the plates with NHS dietitians they have become regular customers and supply these plates to their patients to help them lose weight and enjoy a healthy balanced diet.

The good news is that according to the NHS, a 5% reduction in body weight followed up by regular moderate intensity exercise could reduce your type 2 diabetes risk by more than 50%. It doesn’t take long to see and feel the difference once you start to reduce your portion sizes.

You'll also find Healthy Portion Plates in the Diabetes UK website shop.

A little bit about me...

Hi, I'm Marianne Dolphin - the founder and creator of Marianne's PLATE.

I have been running my business single handed for the 14 years and loving every minute of it as it's allowed me the luxury of bringing up my two children while also having a successful career.

I used to work for a Pharmaceutical company selling weight loss medication and was constantly told by medical professionals that patients needed something to help them learn how to eat healthily to lose weight rather than taking a tablet to do the work for them. That's when I decided to take the leap to set up my own business, develop and produce my portion plates. I was lucky enough to work with the NHS professionals I knew from my Pharma rep days and they were invaluable in helping me ensure my plates were accurate in every way when it came to portion sizes, food examples, etc.

I now have 4 different designs available so I believe there's a design for everyone. In addition to the general public, my plates are used by the NHS and Diabetes UK which is an achievement I'm very proud of.

Thanks for taking the time to check out my website. Please do not hesitate to get in touch if you’d like any further information.
