Golf in Society’s services are an incredible value for money compared to the rest of the health and care industry.
For as little as £10 per hour, people living with chronic illness and their carers can access a comprehensive range of benefits.
Our program provides access to green spaces, social opportunities, and a break from caring. Participants can enjoy keeping active with inclusive activities that provide an opportunity for everyone to get involved. They can learn new skills while feeling supported by compassionate individuals, and find a sense of purpose, belonging, and hope for the future.
A Holistic Well-being Experience
Moreover, the program provides a comprehensive holistic well-being experience that stimulates the mind, body, and soul.
Participants can enjoy cognitive stimulation, making 27 decisions every time they play a golf shot. Similarly, the activities can provide moderate exercise, grip strength, balance, coordination, muscle strength, and health – all while participants enjoy the beautiful natural surroundings.
In addition to providing all these benefits, the program offers an efficient service, accessible to all. There is no waiting list, and free parking, providing easy accessibility and a safe environment. Our program even provides access to Allied Health Professionals and Carers Wellbeing Events.
How do we compare to the rest of the industry?
The cost-effectiveness of our program is unbeatable. Compared to the national hourly average of moderate exercise (£55) or cognitive stimulation (£99), the program costs as little as £10 per hour, delivering a reduction in loneliness, positive mindset, relaxation, improved life satisfaction, and rewarding achievements.
Moreover, the program significantly reduces the cost of healthcare services that patients often require. For instance, an OT assessment (£85), outpatient attendance (£135), cognitive outpatient attendance (£171), and respite support from a private provider (£24) are all a fraction of their normal charges through our program.
In Conclusion
Golf in Society’s services are unparalleled in the health and care industry. Our program provides comprehensive support and benefits that cater to the mind, body, and soul, while also delivering significant cost savings. With a direct social impact of £1 returning £16.84, Golf in Society’s services are an incredible value for money, offering an affordable, efficient, and effective solution for individuals living with chronic illness and their carers.
