Our Physical Activity Referral Scheme introduces people to the benefits of physical activity and exercise. Everyone can benefit from being more active but this scheme is for the local community who may already have a pre-existing medical condition which could benefit from exercise or those at risk through a non-active lifestyle. The PARS scheme consists of a 12 week programme which is supervised by staff qualified in Exercise Referral and is aimed to meet the clinical needs of patients dependent on their health and physical condition. The 12 week system will consist of referral either by yourself or by your doctor, initial consultation, regular reviews and monitoring and specialist advice and programming suited to your individual needs. For a list of the medical conditions accepted please see the download on the right hand side of the screen.
What happens when I finish?
By the end of your programme you will have enough fitness skills to be able to exercise independently. To ensure continued benefits from physical activity, you must participate regularly (ideally five times per week for at least 30 minutes per session).PARS will cost £15 for 30 days upon completionof the 12 weeks provided targets have been met.
