NEW 12-week exercise programme
Exercise, mobilise and socialise
The feedback from participants regarding the course has been overwhelmingly positive, prompting us to plan for more 12-week programs in 2024!
The first cohort has successfully finished the 12-week Exercise Referral program, which consisted of weekly 1-hour sessions. Made up of 30-40 minutes of chair-based, body weight, and resistance-band exercises, followed by a 20–30-minute social period where participants could engage in discussions related to health and well-being. Each patient was provided with handouts containing still images and descriptions of exercises for home practice.
Upon completion of the 12-week program, our health and wellbeing coaches observed positive outcomes, including notable weight loss, reduced waist circumferences, improved flexibility, and mobility, and enhanced cardiovascular fitness.
