GEORGE GORDON
COACH

I graduated in 2017 with a BSc Hons in Sport & Exercise Science. Having studied Physiology of Health during my degree, my passion for supporting long term lifestyle behaviour change for improved physical and mental health grew. It is amazing to see what people can achieve from implementing small, sustainable lifestyle changes. 

Your local Healthier You programme is provided by Living Well Taking Control. The aim of the NHS Diabetes Prevention Programme is to help local patients improve their knowledge, ability and confidence whilst offering the support needed to make positive lifestyle choices.
