Active Health
What is Active Health?
Our Active Health project supports people to become more active as a way of improving their health and wellbeing.
There is no cost to participate and we work with anyone registered with a GP practice in the Highlands who would benefit from being more physically active. You can self refer by clicking HERE or be referred by your GP / health practitioner.
How can Active Health support you?
Our Project Workers, Lisa and Jodi, will meet with you to discuss your motivation, interests, hopes and challenges. We understand it can be difficult to make changes and support you to take small steps towards activities you enjoy. It can be helpful to set goals and create a plan to keep track of how you’re getting on.
We currently work 1:1 by video call. (Or phone if that’s not possible) We usually have 3 appointments spread over 3 months. The initial meeting is up to 1 hour, followed by 2 x 30 minute reviews.

And here’s what a few other participants have said about the project:-
“Prior to taking part in the project I did virtually no exercise. Meeting up with the link worker has given me the necessary motivation to get moving and enjoy it. It came at the right time and gave me the kickstart I needed.
“I feel much better in myself after walking, clearer head, more energy and feel much more positive about things, also feel really refreshed.”
“It’s helped me to see things differently, to notice changes in my activity levels and be more conscious of what I’m doing”
