Everyone Active’s Health and Wellbeing programme at Winchester Sport and Leisure Park provides an opportunity for people to access a high-quality supervised exercise programme. The aim is to improve participants’ health and wellbeing by encouraging long-term participation in physical activity. It targets people who suffer from, or are at risk of developing chronic medical conditions and provides support to patients whose health could benefit from a more active lifestyle.

Within our health and wellbeing programme, we will also be delivering specialist classes for the following conditions: pulmonary, neurological, musculoskeletal and falls prevention.

The benefits of exercise on health are well documented, below are some of our member testimonials since the scheme started.
“The gym staff are very friendly and motivational and have helped me achieve my goals. I mix my gym workouts with group fitness classes and swimming and very much enjoy it. I am now depression free – I am a new man!”
“A recent patient with fibromyalgia told me she has had a better response to the exercise programme set up for her via Everyone Active than 16 different painkillers & antidepressants we have tried! I have positive feedback from every patient who attends the sessions & have seen really significant & long-term improvements in patient health resulting from the lifestyle changes they have made” – Doctor
