Steps to Health

Your GP can refer you to Steps to Health, Hengrove’s Exercise Referral Scheme which provides a safe, supervised and enjoyable introduction to physical activity within a controlled environment.

The scheme gives people who are not regularly active or who have health problems the opportunity to improve their health and well-being, regardless of age, ability or experience.

What’s Involved?

• Welcome meeting and health assessment
• 12 week exercise programme
• Health way point check in and 2nd health assessment
• Advice & Support to encourage long term, sustainable changes
• Variety of activities, gym, swimming, water based exercise classes, land based exercised, good boost and exercise classes for specific medial conditions

What Happens at the End of the 12 Week Course?

At the end of the programme, you’ll have a follow-up assessment (arranged at your first session) to review your progress and celebrate what you’ve achieved.

After this, you’ll have the option to continue with an Expressions membership at a reduced monthly rate.

Whether or not you choose to continue, the programme is a great opportunity to try something new, support your health, meet new people, and enjoy the journey. The scheme is designed to gently encourage physical activity and improve overall health and wellbeing, particularly for those with specific medical conditions.

Get involved! Simply speak to your GP, Practice Nurse, Physiotherapist or Medical Professional. If you are eligible, you will be referred to us.
