Activity Referral

If you need guidance and support in order to improve your health by starting a new fitness routine please contact your local health care practitioner to discuss our Activity Referral Programme. (Please note this programme is currently only available if you live in Perth City, Crieff, Kinross, Pitlochry, Aberfeldy and Auchterarder.)

Our Activity Referral Programme supports you in your efforts to become more active by linking your doctor’s surgery or health care practitioner with your local Live Active Leisure venue. The programme's main focus is to allow you to become more active in order to see long term changes in your health or medical condition by starting a simple 12 week programme.
