Ever wanted to get fitter and healthier, but didn't know where to start?

A new GP-led scheme in Leeds is offering keep fit classes and advice to those with chronic illnesses such as obesity, type 2 diabetes and arthritis, who want to live a healthier lifestyle.

Patients are referred to the scheme, which is run by personal trainers and offers classes such as Latin dancing, boxing and 'chairobics'.

Alice Truswell was referred to the scheme after GPs told her she is at high risk of developing type 2 diabetes.

She said: "It scared me and my family, so we made the decision that I would be healthier."

Alice is now enrolled on a boxing course.

"I like the power that you get from being a boxer," she added.
