Fantastic to see the expansion of such an important program further across the county. The strong evidence base in this program is an absolute stand out in reducing falls, supporting independence, and growing confidence in people working to increase strength & improve balance.
Living Well Occupational Therapy CIC are proud to support & promote this program and to work in partnership with Northamptonshire Sport in delivering best practice at our community Get Up & Go classes.

Our iCAN Get Up & Go programme is expanding across Northamptonshire.

Designed for people living with mild to moderate frailty, iCAN offers a 24-week programme focused on strength, balance and confidence, alongside time to connect with others.

The expansion means more people can now access support, helping them stay independent, reduce their risk of falls and remain connected to their community.

Alongside iCAN, we also deliver a wide range of community-based Get Up & Go classes across the county, open to anyone looking to improve their strength, balance and confidence.

Engagement in creative activities is known to significantly improve mental health and wellbeing by decreasing stress, anxiety, and depression. Activity such as ceramic painting promotes mindfulness, supports emotional regulation, and fosters a sense of accomplishment connected to the process rather than the final product 🎨🖌️
Our Carousel of Activities Wellbeing Course explores aspects of wellbeing through the use of different creative media - the next course begins on 14th May. Please get in touch if you'd like to find out more.
