DementiaRoadmap

Live Active is a supportive physical activity service designed to help people living with long-term health conditions – including dementia –  become more active in a safe, sustainable and enjoyable way.

Our specially trained advisors offer one-to-one, dementia-friendly guidance, tailored activity plans and ongoing encouragement to help individuals build confidence, improve physical health and enhance overall mental wellbeing through regular movement.

Whether it is walking more, joining a gentle exercise group or simply finding ways to stay active day-to-day, Live Active is here to support each person at their own pace.

Staying active can make a real difference for people living with dementia – helping to maintain mobility, boost mood, reduce anxiety and support independence for longer. Watch this short film about Eileen’s time with Live Active: NHSGGC – Live Active – Eileen’s Story

Testimony:

Irene is living with dementia and has been attending a Live Active class for the past 6 months. Irene and her husband told us they enjoy the healthy and structured exercise and Irene has been able to meet people her own age and develop friendships at the classes.  Diane from Live Active believes attending the class has improved Irene’s condition, due to the regular contact with other participants and increased confidence.
