Aim of the Service

Our aim is to get individuals with Chronic Lung Conditions comfortable and back moving in the gym. This service will help improve self-management skills for those with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) and other respiratory conditions. Our staff are qualified Personal Trainers who are trained specifically to work this group. The exercises classes are for one hour and can be tailored to the individual. Please have a look at our ‘Health Connections Gym’ page for more details and class timetables.
