Parkinson’s Physical Activity Session

The session is led by a qualified fitness coach employed by the Leisure Centre.

The session starts with some seated warm-ups (which can also be done standing) and then the remainder of the session is a mix of different activities including seated volleyball, archery, boxing and boccia. The sessions are person centred and adapted to meet the needs of all the participants.

The sessions also offer opportunities to improve social and mental health.

The sessions are supported by East Riding Active Communities and Pocklington Rugby in the Community.
