12 weeks to wellbeing is a programme of weekly support and physical activity to help adults make positive changes to their lifestyle.
As part of the programme, you can choose a physical activity pathway and access healthy lifestyle workshops. You will receive weekly support to help you make positive changes to your lifestyle.
Activities include swimming, fitness, gym and dance. With different activities, times and locations to choose from, you will hopefully find an option that interests you and fits your routine. Expert local sports and physical activity partners run the sessions.
The workshops are led by wellbeing experts every other Thursday evening. Topics include nutrition, setting goals, and sleep and stress management.
