Patient 'Exit Strategy' (Returning back to a Health & Wellbeing activity)


Project London Health are looking for GP and Healthcare surgeries that want to provide a FREE patient 'Exit Strategy'

in health & wellbeing. This also applies to community halls & other social groups.


PLH have 4-specific groups that meet in E'dulwich on Saturdays & Sundays: Fitness in the Park, Parents & buggies, Walk & Talk and easy cycling. Regular updates are fed into S'wark Council and the Primary Care Trust; we would like to expand these health and wellbeing schemes to include more of the local community.


If this is of interest to your surgery, please email PLH at [email protected] (Active-Healthy-Mind) and a poster for your board will be emailed back to you.


Who attends?

We have doctors, nurses, healthcare professionals, prenatal, post natal, parents with buggies, those getting back to exercise, diabetics, in remission, fibromyalgia and the list continues; all of which want to improve their fitness level or to help tone their body.


About the Groups

They can all be found on the EDF 'Whats on in ED' & 'Family Classified'


Fitness in the Park: Sat @ 10am, 1-hour of relaxed CV, toning & stretching

Parents & Buggies: Sat @ 10am, 1-hour of the above with varied abilities.

G'day Peckhamgatecrasher,


Reflected on your comment and changed the Subject bar. Within the healthcare profession an 'exit strategy' relates to the positive progression after treatment. But..... good catch anyway!

Hi Ms_Lilith,


Yes, LOL me too! Commmunication is so important, high level expressions are fine but not if nobody knows what it means. Whether one participates for a power walk, jog, cycle ride or a standard walk the endorphins start spinning within a few minutes.



Best,


McCabe

    • This may be somewhat out of date but virtually no environmental benefit & almost entirely grass... really? https://www.gigl.org.uk/sinc/sobi09/ Description Peckham Rye was established as an open space in the late 19th century and includes several valuable habitat features spread across the park. The park is a Grade II Listed landscape, and has recently been restored with assistance from the Heritage Lottery Fund. A small community garden within the site is managed by the Friends of Peckham Rye. Peckham Rye Park won a Green Flag Award again for 2022. The site is used by the Southwark Health Walks project as part of a Walking the Way to Health (WHI) scheme. Wildlife This large park has several valuable habitat features. The most important of these is the only remaining above-ground section of the River Peck and the most natural stream in the borough. The stream is heavily shaded by native, unmanaged wet woodland dominated by alder, ash and pedunculated oak with a ground cover of pendulous sedge and bramble. Alder dominated woodland is a rare habitat in Southwark. Although somewhat altered with weirs, other artificial structures and ornamental planting, some sections are still in their natural banks and includes yellow flag, watercress, water figwort and cuckooflower. The largest of three ponds supports marginal vegetation including hemp agrimony. A variety of waterfowl nest on the wooded island, including tufted duck, coot, Canada goose and mallard. Substantial flocks of gulls visit the park in winter and bats are likely to forage over the water. Small blocks of predominantly native woodland, mostly on the boundary between the Park and the Common, are dominated by oak and ash with a well-developed understory, but sparse ground flora. Spring bulbs have been planted in previous years. These and several dense shrubberies support a good bird population and small numbers of pipistrelle bats are present. Infrequently mown grassland is located in one large area and was seeded in 2009. It's composition includes giant fescue, ladies bedstraw, meadowsweet, black knapweed and wild carrot. The rest of the park consists of amenity grassland with some fine mature trees.  
    • Same here. Incredibly selfish behaviour. Also illegal.
    • I heard them & our two dogs were extremely upset by it..  bad enough during the evenings but at least can have music on to dilute the noise!   Some people have literally zero thoughts for others!! 
    • I have signed that petition.  Someone was letting off loud fireworks at about 3 am this morning. They woke me up.   I don’t know where they were exactly but it sounded like they were in the vicinity of Dog Kennel Hill.
