Moving Medicine

Do you or a member of your family suffer from COPD, Diabetes, Dementia or Depression?

Moving Medicine is an exciting new initiative by the Faculty of Sport and Exercise Medicine in partnership with Public Health England and Sport England. It is dedicated to spreading best practice, research and advice to clinicians and patients to create a healthier, happier and more active nation.

The UK is currently suffering pandemic levels of physical inactivity. This inactivity causes a heavy burden of morbidity and mortality. This can be prevented and effectively treated through moving more.

At the heart of intervention in healthcare lies conversations between healthcare professionals and members of the public. These conversations provide a unique opportunity to Interact with the least active members of society.
