Health Referral Programme

What is the Health Referral Programme?

The Health Referral Programme starts with a conversation about, “what matters to you”. A range of options will be discussed and support provided to access any activity, not just the ones delivered by Active Leeds.

  • Online or printed toolkits.
  • LIVE online sessions.
  • Support at home via social media, phone or conference software.
  • Face to face in groups or one to one.
  • Outdoors or Indoor activities.
  • Specialised health programme.
  • Community based activities.

    • When you start the programme, services include regardless of what activity you choose;

  • An initial consultation face to face or on the phone
  • Motivational support
  • Ongoing support for up to 6 appointments.
  • Access to activities to suit your individual needs.
