Get Started Programme

Our Get Started programme is a population wide healthy lifestyle programme delivered in partnership with Shetland Recreational Trust (SRT). It’s bespoke to Shetland, in that it’s written, delivered and evaluated locally. We focus on improving a wide range of healthy habits covering diet, activity, weight, sleep, mood and more!

The programme is run within your local leisure centre and runs for 12 months, meeting fortnightly initially and less frequently as the year progresses. When we meet, you will attend a 45-minute education session around healthy lifestyle followed by 45 minutes of physical activity supported by the leisure centre staff.

If you are interested in joining the Get Started groups, please complete the Referral Form on our website www.healthyshetland.com and a member of our team will be in touch when we start screening for the next round of groups.
