Walfinch carers help you have a safe summer.

Ways to get active. No need to start running or go to the gym. Low-impact exercises can improve your health and fitness without harming your joints. The NHS says moderate-intensity, low-impact activity, such as yoga, swimming, tai chi, or walking is just as effective as high-impact activity in lowering the risk of heart disease. If you want an exercise buddy, a Walfinch carer will come with you.
