Herefordshire's Specialist Activity and Training Scheme
Herefordshire's Specialist Physical Activity Scheme aims to improve the health and well being of Herefordshire residents:
- providing targeted and specialist activity sessions
- supporting training through accredited health and fitness courses
- providing a mentoring system for volunteers/instructors in the community
- ensuring integration with other lifestyle improvement programmes
- working with partners to reduce barriers to participation in physical activity such as transport, lack of knowledge or lack of confidence
The scheme has worked in partnership with groups such as Age Concern, Falls Prevention, Cardiac Rehabilitation, Adult Learning Disabilities and the Royal National College to provide delivery, training, mentoring and support.
