GCRA+ is a health charity, which was founded in 2002 by three cardiac patients to establish and provide Phase IV Cardiac Rehabilitation exercise classes in Grampian, led by professionally trained specialist exercise instructors.
Around 2,500 people have directly benefitted from attending our specialist exercise classes. We currently lead a network of weekly 'Healthy Heart' & 'Strength & Balance' exercise classes at community venues throughout Aberdeen City & Aberdeenshire.
After piloting the effectiveness of our exercise classes for patients with a wider range of long term health conditions on behalf of NHS Grampian in 2013/14, a decision was made to open up our classes to people living with a range of long-term health conditions.
Anyone who has a long term health condition or wishes to improve their general well-being can join our exercise classes and become a member. A spouse, partner or carer of a member is also welcome to exercise with the class.
There might still be the opportunity to lend your time as a volunteer, why not visit the organisation's website or get in touch to find out?
