In this week's episode I'm joined by Rebecca Roberts from Bfitr. With over 20 years of experience in the industry, Becky has worked with a diverse range of individuals, particularly within what we call the specialist population. She spent 15 years working with the Exercise Referral Scheme in North Wales. Today, she'll be sharing her insights into her journey and the importance of community-based activity sessions.

We talk about

• Rebecca's Experience with the Exercise Referral Scheme
• Local Access to Fitness
• Initiating Community-Based Activity Sessions
• The Importance of the Social Element
• the physical and mental benefits
• building confidence and starting where you are
• how to make people feel included and part of the community

About Rebecca:
Rebecca Roberts helps people improve their functional ability and fitness through community-based classes. Rebecca has been in the fitness industry for 20 years and worked for the national exercise referral scheme in North Wales for 15 years.  While working on the scheme she realised there was a lack of conveniently located classes at the right level for people who had completed the referral scheme but were not ready or didn’t want to join the gym or go to mainstream classes.

This led to the development of BFitR which focuses on inclusive and accessible classes for older adults, and she now runs three classes a week in her local area.

When not teaching Rebecca likes to spend time with her three girls and running up and down hills with her dog!
