Handover of the YorWellbeing Exercise Referral Programme

From 1^st July 2018 the exercise referral programme in York will cease to be operated by City of York Council’s YorWellbeing service. Management of the programme will be taken over by Better. This is a brand that has been created by Greenwich Leisure Limited (GLL), which now operates Energise leisure centre and Yearsley pool, and is currently building the new Community Stadium and Leisure Complex at Monks Cross in partnership with City of York Council.   The new service will be called HealthWise and will work in much the same way as the current programme, offering gym and community-based specialist instructor classes throughout the city. Any referrals sent to us up until 30^th June will be dealt with by the YorWellbeing team. From 1^st July onwards, referrals should be directed to HealthWise by email using the address healthwiseyork@gll.org. Any referrals that are received after the 1^st July will be returned to the referrer with instructions to forward them to the HealthWise programme.
