Keep Fit and Carry On! With Diana Moran
at The Burlington Care Home

Our residents were delighted to have Diana Moran virtually host an exercise session, specially for our residents, produced in conjunction with The Burlington and Shackeltons. The residents recognised Diana as she is a frequent visitor to The Burlington, who lives locally and is very generous with her time and support.

The class was well received with comments from residents such as “It was lovely she did that for us!” (Rosemary M), “I really enjoyed it, there was a good range of exercises for everyone”(Rosemary S), “I remember seeing her on TV!”  (Marc) and “I thought the standing up and sitting down exercise was really hard work. Good though!...” (Betty).

There is strong evidence that people who are active have a lower risk of heart disease, stroke, type 2 diabetes, some cancers, depression and dementia.  This is why at The Burlington, gentle, regular chair exercises and walks around our safe and beautiful gardens, take place regularly.
