- Try out a range of activities e.g. low impact exercise, aqua jogging or aquacise, gym, sports, dance.
- Discuss topics that support a healthy lifestyle
e.g. motivation, types of exercise, healthy eating, and managing stress.

All activities are suited to people new or returning to activity, with a focus on enjoying being active and giving things a go.
