PATIENT AND PUBLIC INFORMATION

Let's Get Moving - patient resource (24th September 2009)
The Let's Get Moving (LGM) patient pack is designed to support patients in their efforts to become more active and contains helpful hints, practical examples, simple visual tools and personal planning exercises (practitioners might also wish to use the resource to guide patients towards becoming more active).

The pack has templates for relevant local information on indoor and outdoor activity opportunities. These templates should be completed locally, printed and inserted into the LGM patient pack prior to distribution to service deliverers. There is also an online search tool available on NHS Choices. Maps of local walking routes and green space are another supportive tool that can be included in the patient pack: these were very well received by patients in the LGM feasibility pilot.
