The fitness industry has been successful in enticing the healthy and active young adults to participate in exercise while other inactive groups have drawn limited attention. This is where the GP Referral Programme has the potential to play an important role in encouraging patients of all ages to increase their level of physical activity.

Participants are asked to complete a Pre Assessment Questionnaire before starting any of our programmes.

GP referrals can be for a variety of reasons, but they all have one thing in common - the person requires the services of a trained professional to design a safe and effective exercise programme.

Health professionals e.g.GPs, Practice Nurses, Physiotherapists, Occupational Therapists etc. will complete a Pre Assessment Registration Questionnaire (PARQ) referral form which is based upon questions relating to your medical condition. On production of this questionnaire an activity programme will then be developed for you.

Referred individuals can have either an individual 1:1 consultation or attend one of our sessions. all of which are supervised to ensure safe and effective exercise.

If you live in the Northwich, Winsford or Knutsford areas of Cheshire and are interested in an individually developed GP Exercise Referral programme by a qualified Wright Foundation Referral Programme Consultant then please contact Barbara on 07768 067914 for a no obligation consultation.
