Parkrun Practice

As part of our commitment to the health and wellness of our community, Appletree Medical Practice has linked with Markeaton Park and Shipley Park and is now officially a parkrun practice. The parkrun practice initiative is a collaboration between the Royal College of General Practitioners and parkrun UK, designed to encourage practices across the UK to develop close links with their local parkrun.

Parkruns are social physical activity events which are held every Saturday morning. People can walk, run, volunteer or come along and watch. Taking part in parkrun is the perfect opportunity for people of all ages to be active, with others, in the open air. By linking with the local Parkruns, we want to inspire as many people as possible to lead healthy lifestyles, including practice staff.
