‘Live Well is a charity that offers gentle exercise classes across the East Lothian region to help people get the exercise they need to live a healthier lifestyle, regardless of their medical condition or fitness ability. The classes are for those living with or recovering from chronic long-term conditions or events, or even for those just wishing to improve general stability and fitness whilst increasing social connectedness.
In 2022 BSLM took up the charity as one of our delivery arms and the BSLM Communities Officer is currently working on some funding applications to help increase referrals and expand the class offering.
Live Well touches on many aspects of lifestyle medicine for not only do they incorporate balance, strength and cardiovascular elements to ensure a well-rounded work out, but our specialist instructors also give advice and guidance on how to exercise safely at home, provide gentle nutrition tips, and encourage social interaction between participants at the end of class.
