You would be referred because your doctor or your healthcare professional feels that your health will benefit if you are more active in your everyday life.
Physical activity has a positive effect on many long term health conditions including heart disease, diabetes, cancer, and many more.
It can also reduce the risk of healthy people developing these conditions. Being active regularly is also important in helping to maintain a healthy weight.
Before you start exercising with PARS you will receive an invite to attend a clinical appointment. At this appointment your health and suitability for taking part in physical activity will be assessed by a Physical Activity Referral Officer (PARO).
You will be given specific advice on activities and exercises that will benefit you, taking into account your own personal health conditions.
