All new Exercise Referral members (premium and basic) must complete an ER consultation at a cost of £15 before the membership can be started. This covers your initial 1:1 consultation, gym induction and personalised programme of exercise with one of our Exercise Referral specialists.
During your initial consultation, we will discuss your referral, previous medical history and medication as well as discuss your exercise goals. You will then book a suitable time to have your 1:1 induction and personalised programme of exercise in the gym, if appropriate.
Our centre is fully inclusive, so everyone can enjoy the benefits of physical activity. Seats can be removed from exercise stations for wheelchair access, and controls are larger and brightly coloured for those with visual impairment.
If you have difficulty getting to our fitness centre, our wheelchair accessible minibus service for Exercise Referral members can pick you up from home (Reigate, Redhill, Merstham and Horley area), bring you to the YMCA and take you back home again.
