  • An initial consultant and activity program with a level 3/4 Exercise Referral Advisor
  • Personal exercise plan
  • Options for discounted membership over the 12 weeks which includes access to the gym and classes), or a reduced fee of £5 for a pay-as-you-go session.

How To Get Started

Please talk to your GP, practice nurse or health advisor for a referral. You can also be referred by specialist NHS services, local health trainers and local public health services.
