Once all information has been recorded we will talk through the results and discuss appropriate physical activity opportunities available in the local area. One-to-one support is available for those struggling to find motivation.
How long will it last?
The Drop In is available for 1 hour and you can come along at any time during that hour. It will take approximately 15 minutes to record the relevant information. There is no need to make an appointment and no obligation to take part in any physical activity.
