What is this service?
Kickstart, Active Boost and Cardiactive, provided by Everyone Health Southwark, are free exercise referral services which are designed to encourage inactive people to get more physically active. All three services involve taking part in activities such as swimming and group fitness classes at a Southwark Leisure Centre, over a 12-week period. Which service a patient is referred to depends on how much support they need:
After completion of the service, patients will receive support through a completion assessment, 9-month progress check, information on local activity opportunities, and access to a reduced leisure centre membership.
Criteria
- Aged 18 and over
- Live in Southwark, or registered with a Southwark GP
