Health and wellbeing

We're committed to increasing activity participation levels across all ages, abilities and backgrounds

Your GP or health professional can refer you to our health and wellbeing referral programme, where we’ll help you become more active through enjoyable and engaging activities.

If you are managing a long term condition such as diabetes, Parkinson’s, cancer or struggling with your mental health, we offer a variety of activities and classes for everyone, all led by our highly skilled and qualified team. Throughout the programme we’ll support you in your journey to leading a healthier lifestyle. We’ll provide you with expert support which will be centred on your interests and reason for referral.

It doesn’t matter if you’ve never been an active person. We have options for all abilities. 

By increasing or maintaining good levels of activity, you can:

  • Delay or prevent chronic illnesses and diseases associated with inactivity such as heart disease, stroke, type 2 diabetes, and some types of cancer.
  • Maintain your quality of life and independence longer as you age.
  • Boost your energy levels so that you can do more.
  • Manage your mental wellbeing.
  • Improve your strength and balance so you can prevent injuries and stay independent.
  • Lower your pain.
  • Create healthy social connections.

“I felt listened to and that everything I was doing was tailored for me and my situation. This in turn gave me momentum on off-days.”​
