Maple supports the great work that is happening within our communities and the community and voluntary sector to promote health and well-being.

The Oak Healthy Living Centre

At Oak there is lots going on to do with staying healthy and improving your overall feeling of well being. They offer a Social Prescribing service. A link worker would talk to you, identify your health and well-being plans and decide together with you what is available in your community with regards to activities. They also offer a befriending service, a drop-in clinic, a falls prevention programme and many more. Please check out their website or ask one of us here at Maple to be referred.

Fermanagh Active Living Project- NOW Physical Activity Referral Scheme (PARS)

The practice is involved in the Physical Activity Referral Scheme which provides a route for healthcare professionals to refer appropriate patients to their local leisure centre for supervised exercise programmes. There is compelling evidence that physical activity provides protectors against a number of diseases including coronary heart disease, osteoporosis, diabetes, colon cancer and depression.
