What extra help will we give you?
You will be supported over the next 12 months once you start with us where we will support you through your health and fitness journey.
Once we’ve contacted you to get started, you’ll be invited for an informal consultation with one of our expert team members. During this time, we’ll chat about your health & fitness goals, health and exercise history, your likes and dislikes and make you feel at ease in this new environment.
You’ll leave with an activity plan and advice on areas that will improve your mental and physical health. This isn’t where we leave you though.
Throughout the next 12 months you will be able to attend sessions with people in the same position as you and book in for support with members of the team for motivation, advice and updates to your activity plan as you progress.
All of this will result in you including exercise into your weekly routine and forming a habit with our help and you’ll never look back. You’ll get fitter, be more social, feel happier and live better with our help.
