The Active Lives Pathway helps adults in Dumfries and Galloway move more, in a way that suits them.
If you are not currently active, a health or social care professional can refer you to a free local programme, based on your confidence, motivation and the level of support you need.
Referrals are for people who need structured support (Tiers 2–4). Others can be signposted to local activities
You can start at any level and move up or down as your confidence and health change.
