Brief Description | Physical Activity Referral Schemes (PARS) are the most prevalent physical activity intervention in primary care, with over 800 schemes in operation in the UK. In this module, students will build on knowledge and skills gained in SPX215, but focus on the extent to which schemes are fit for purpose and their limitations. Contemporary approaches to evaluation will be considered, including factors influencing access to, and progression through, schemes. Students will be expected to consider the empirical evidence base, alongside their local practical experience, in determining contemporary advances in the approach to PARS in the UK. |
