Testimonials

Rebecca

When I heard, via a leaflet, of the NHS initiative ShapeUp4Life, I decided to have one last go, determined not to become, literally, a heavy burden to my family. I am so glad I did. At the end of the 12 week course I have lost well over a stone and made friends along the way, for the numbers taking part are usually much smaller leading to a spirit of camaraderie and making discussions much easier – there was a lot of laughter.

Gareth

ShapeUp4Life has supported me in changing lifestyle for myself and my family. I have learnt a lot of new information and have felt very supported during the process. It has certainly impacted my well-being and life.

Sarah

I found the course helped me onto the right path. Also, this encouraged my husband to do the same, he had been borderline type 2 diabetic for the last year. He now exercise regularly and walks 3-4 miles a day and has lost over a stone! He is also eating the same foods as me which makes life easier.

Tim

I needed support from a group and I haven’t been disappointed. I’ve enjoyed and looked forward to my Wednesday evenings and it’s given me the encouragement and incentive that I so desperately needed.

Alan

Clear and encouraging advice about how to be more healthy with good nutrition and exercise for everyone across the age range and any shape and size.

James

The course has helped introduce new forms of exercise and suggestions on how to incorporate it into normal everyday life. I have changed the amount of time I do things as opposed to sitting down. I feel a lot fitter and able to cope, the course is well worth taking part in, you learn a lot.
