Helping you to manage diabetes through exercise and nutrition
Assisted by Diabetes UK - the largest organisation in the UK working for people with diabetes - our programme provides an individually tailored exercise and nutritional programme specially designed for those with diabetes.
The Programme for people with diabetes provides activity that can play an essential role in the control of diabetes by helping to control blood glucose, blood pressure and blood fat levels,(including cholesterol) as well as helping to manage weight. As with all of our programmes it is also designed to improve overall wellbeing.
What to expect
Focusing on both diet and exercise this 12 week programme integrates a range of activities with nutrition education. With a large range of activities available, members are able to follow a programme which not only meets their needs, but which they will also enjoy. All activities are closely supervised by a Senior Wellbeing Advisor
Programme content:

- An agreed exercise programme with a log book to record your visits, exercises and feelings – you’ll find it a useful record of what you have achieved
