Prescribing medication is arguably the most common approach adopted by health professionals but exercise referral may provide a viable alternative or a valuable additional way to help improve your condition – one suitable for many individuals.

Most people with long term health conditions can be referred onto the GP exercise referral scheme, including those with conditions such as arthritis, asthma, high blood pressure, diabetes, osteoporosis and obesity. Individuals with mental health conditions such as depression, stress and anxiety are often also referred.

To be referred by a medical professional, please contact your GP who will be able to send us your relevant information before you can start. 

What to expect when referred to exercise?

Exercise instructors will receive all relevant background information relating to why you have been referred for exercise. This will help ensure the creation of a safe and targeted programme. The exercise instructor delivering this program will give you all the support and expertise necessary to ensure the exercise is as beneficial as possible.

How do I get referred?

Your medical professional, normally your GP, will be able to refer you. At your next appointment it is worth asking if you would gain from being referred for exercise.
