Local Healthy Living & Exercise Opportunities
On this page:
As physiotherapists we are big advocates of a healthy lifestyle, to optimise not only your physical wellbeing but also your mental, emotional and social wellbeing. We have compiled a list of resources, some of which are specifically for those living in Wandsworth, but a lot of the below resources can be accessed and applied by everyone:
Wandsworth Wellbeing Hub
The Wandsworth Wellbeing Hub is a free and impartial NHS service which aims to help patients and the public to find organisations and services to support their health and wellbeing needs. Spanning from weight loss programmes, smoking cessation, exercise and gym programmes, as well as psychological support.

They run a number of weekly classes that include tai chi, Yoga, Pilates, over 50s keep fit classes, kickboxing, Zumba and walking sports. For all the weekly classes, the first session is free and there is no need to book, so why not give it a go!
