Tom Underwood of NHS Horizons looks at the innovative partnership between the #SportEngland, @NHSEngland and @OHID on the Moving Healthcare Professionals Programme.
The initiative aims to embed physical activity within health systems to support people to stay healthy.

One option: support the ongoing transformation of gyms and pools into community hubs for people living with Long-term Conditions! - accessible, warm and close to home with NICE-approved physical activity interventions and personalised, inclusive care vimeo.com/805046886

We need to share this recently release video far and wide. The simple answer is if healthcare professionals attend parkrun themselves for the first time they will actively start signposting it for patients. Gain the benefits then signpost others
Great question - how can the NHS encourage self-referral to the many amazing physical activity services out there like park run? @KathEvans2 @zubaidihussain @nicolagitsham @KennyPhysio #SolvingTogether

@ST_Transform #SolvingTogether can’t make it to the tweet chat this evening 😟 but thought the new ‘Swimming as Medicine’ film from @Swim_England and @zubaidihussain @rcgp might be relevant - encouraging HCPs to recommend aquatic activity patients 👏🏻

Awesome film! Swimming as medicine 🏊🏊♀️🏊♂️
On #SocialPrescribingDay, we've teamed up with @rcgp to launch ‘Swimming as Medicine’ and encourage healthcare professionals to consider recommending swimming and aquatic activity to their patients 💧

Work of @JoHenrich illustrates much more sophisticated relationship between cooperation and competition (it’s not an either/or). The below sounds a bit WEIRD imo.
I thought the critiques of mainstream economics education might be caricatured, until I started studying.
This slide was shown at the beginning of my undergrad-level micro course, with no offer of alternative starting assumptions or any critical discussion.

Grateful for opportunity to watch the recording from this morning’s #GMMoving Health Integration, design session. A great distillation of the learning so far & exploration of how we build on this collectively to integrate moving across the whole health system. #Beatingheart 💗

1. An essential must read editorial from @CMO_England @NHSEnglandNMD @HelenStokesLam @DrGregorSmith @CMOCymru. If you want to know why CVD prevention is an urgent priority, they explain it here. bmj.com/content/380/bmj.p201

I NEED YOUR HELP! I'm writing an article on physical activity for other healthcate professionals.
But I would love to discover people's opinion on WHY they undertake physical activity?
I don't want the science. I just want the primary reason you decide to get active?

Some great principles for applying behavioural science insights to systems change
Want to know how behavioural science can help you with change incl. spread and scale of innovation and improvement?

Physical inactivity is one of the leading risk factors for non communicable diseases mortality. Affluence, ethnicity and disability/LTC play major role in determining activity level in England. Must be part of HI conversation. Data: @WHO @Sport_England. @doyle_yg @RichmondGroupOC
