Chair-based exercise at our Hertfordshire retirement scheme

Six months ago, one of our retirement scheme managers John began trialling weekly chair based exercises with his residents in Hertfordshire. The exercise classes were run by Move it or Lose it, a company that motivates people to keep active in later life.

The classes went down well so John asked the eight regular attendees if they would mind if people from the community joined the classes too. The residents agreed and after reaching out to other scheme managers and the local community, there was a great response. Now four residents from another scheme and two other people from the community go to the class every Monday morning, which is always followed by tea and a cake baked by John himself!
