Do you have hip and or knee pain? Everybody Leisure has just the class for you!

If you have hip and/or knee pain or osteoarthritis, join Everybody Leisure’s funded, 6-week, evidence-based rehabilitation programme, ESCAPE-pain, to help you manage your joint pain.

Funded by NHS Eastern Cheshire Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG), these exercise sessions are for adults over the age of 45 and are designed to reduce pain and disability in people with chronic hip or knee joint pain.

Over the 6 weeks you will receive information, advice and support from Everybody Leisure’s qualified ESCAPE-pain Instructors to help better manage your chronic joint pain and lead a more active life.

There are two sessions a week, tailored to your individual needs. It’s a chance to socialise with and learn from other people living with osteoarthritis and will result in you being able to carry out normal activities, manage symptoms and be more active.

Eligibility criteria:

·         Aged 45 years or over

·         Chronic joint pain for at least 3 months

·         Needing a supervised exercise programme

·         Independently mobile and able to carry out regular exercise
