PARiS (Physical Activity Referral in Stockport)
Physical Activity Referral in Stockport (PARiS) is the GP Exercise Referral scheme in Stockport, designed to help patients with moderate medical conditions become and stay more physically active, whilst benefiting and or improving their health.
A joint partnership between Life Leisure and NHS Stockport, the scheme is delivered by a strong and experienced team of health and exercise professionals, who provide guidance, support and pathways towards health improvement.
Research has shown that becoming more physically active can benefit you and the management of your medical condition.
