You could knock me down with a feather. I emailed our local GP practice manager about the programme after finding that my blood pressure had dropped significantly, but the nurse measuring it had never heard of C25K. I sent the approved pdf poster/sheet and the accompanying text and a link to the NHS site and a little bit about how it had helped me. I just got a very friendly email back saying thank you very much I have printed everything off and we will discuss it at our next practice meeting on Wednesday. Gosh, I am pleased, I never expected a response let alone a friendly one!

That is a great response! This programme does work and has helped so many with lots of health issues. It surprises me how few GP know about it!
