Live Active

Through the help and support of our specialist Live Active Advisors, you will receive bespoke advice and encouragement to set lifestyle goals, whether it is increasing your activity levels or simply living a more positive lifestyle.

Over the course of a 12 month period, and through the support of our one to-one consultations either in person or on the telephone, our Live Active Advisors will provide you with the knowledge, tools and confidence you need to meet your goals.

A physical activity plan is tailored for each individual and Live Active Advisors help you choose from a range of activities available to you in your local area such as Vitality classes, supervised gym sessions, swimming, and health walks. Rest assured that the Advisors have a wealth of knowledge of all the opportunities available to you locally to become more active. 

Live Active Advisors are also on hand every step of the way offering techniques to cope with setbacks if they arise and advice on how to gain the right social support to keep you on track. The Advisor will propose a personalised support plan for you in terms of what support you will need and how often e.g. telephone calls, catch ups etc. This unique service is ideal for those who are keen to make better lifestyle choices but need help to do so. 

Throughout your time on the Live Active programme, if applicable, you can receive support to access wider NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde support services such as Smokefree Services and the Weight Management Service.

Please note, to access the Live Active Referral Scheme a referral must be made through a GP or other health professional. This can usually be requested over the phone with a health professional without the need for an appointment.
