GOGA: Get Out Get Active!

Posted: 19 January 2023 · Practice news

Get Out Get Active is an initiative aiming to get more people more active together on a physically inclusive basis.

Tayside's fun and free programme (which is subject to weekly change) is currently the only one in Scotland and is also the only one in the UK to be linked to a Health Board.

Open to everyone, there are no referral criteria. In addition, GOGA Tayside provides physical activity sessions (all ability yoga and seated movement/ strength & balance) at NHS Tayside sites, including wards at Murray Royal Hospital and Carseview. This is to benefit patients (as well as visitors and staff) whilst in hospital, and to make them aware of community-based opportunities when they are discharged.

All sessions are adapted to suit individual needs of participants and are all low/moderate intensity. People are supported to attend wherever possible and are signposted to other activities and options within their local community.
