ACTIVITY FOR HEALTH SCHEME

Our Activity for Health Scheme has been successfully running for just over 6 years and in that time we have helped almost 1000 referrals recover through exercise.   We work very closely with the local doctors and hospitals and have had people referred to us for all kinds of different reasons some of which are Parkinson’s disease, multiple sclerosis, back pain, weight loss; depression / anxiety, diabetes, hypertension, Osteoporosis, post-natal, pre and post-operative.  Exercise can benefit all of us in one way or another!.

HOW DO I START?
You will need to contact your local GP who will send a letter to us here at the Chanctonbury Sports & Leisure; we will then contact you to book your initial consultation.

The consultation will last no more than 1 hour and we will also discuss any fears and anxieties you may have as well as an induction in the gym.  We will also book you in for a further appointment for a personal exercise programme which will be tailored to suit your individual needs.

12 WEEK ASSESSMENT
Once you have had your personal programme, you will begin a 12 week assessment; you will be expected to attend the gym twice a week. Half way through the 12 weeks we shall arrange another appointment to assess your progress; then have a final appointment on completing your 12 weeks and a final report will be forwarded to your GP. 

Most people continue with exercise even after completing the scheme as they realise what benefits they have gained from this new way of life. 

HOW MUCH DOES IT COST?
You will receive one years FREE membership! 
Your induction fee is £23.00 or £18.00 for concessions
Session Fees are £4.40 or £3.50 for concessions
