If your mental or physical health is stopping you from being active, Manchester Active PARS is here to help.
From here you can manage your health journey through self-referral or seek a physical activity referral through a professional.
There are many reasons you might be referred to Manchester Active PARS. It could relate to your physical or mental health or both.
You would be referred by a professional who is familiar with you and your health barrier, and who feels that increased activity levels could improve your health. After a referral is made, one of three pathways will be recommended. See links below.
Each of the three Pathways on which you are referred come with varying degrees of hands-on support. People may also find themselves moving between pathways as their needs change over time.
We work with qualified community providers and instructors to deliver sessions in local leisure or community centres. We offer a range of different activities, so we will always try and find something to suit you! Some Manchester Active PARS sessions are free of charge, and others carry a small cost.
