Exeter Leisure’s exercise referral classes are helping to transform lives

A pioneering programme that helps people with medical conditions improve their fitness and wellbeing through exercise has been praised by those taking part.

Exercise referral classes, held at leisure centres across the city, are for people who have suffered medical conditions and have been referred by their GP or health practitioner to aid their recovery through exercise.

Through the initiative Exeter Leisure’s Exercise Referral Instructors devise a personal programme to help people with a large range of conditions.
