Healthcare and Schools

Fitbug is a simple, effective programme suitable for users of all of ages, shapes or sizes and fitness levels. It consists of two discreet modules: fitbug.com and the Fitbug Pro management module, which enables healthcare professionals and teachers to monitor the progress of individuals or groups of clients. The Fitbug programme has been successfully adapted and is currently in use in a variety of ways across the public sector.

Schools

The Fitbug for Schools programme has been created by teachers for teachers. It encourages pupils to take care of their well-being, by tracking and monitoring exactly what they do, while educating them in the importance of physical activity and a healthy diet. There are tailor-made courses for pupils of all ages, consisting of lesson plans and workbook templates, adjusted for each of the key stages. Fitbug conforms to National Curriculum requirements in PE, ICT, Science, Food technology and PSHE.

Primary Care Trusts

Fitbug is already being successfully used by a number of Primary Care Trusts in their weight management, walking and exercise referral schemes. The Fitbug Pro module is particularly effective for Health Trainers and GPs, who can use it to make efficiently planned interventions to people struggling to stay with the programme, provide concrete proof to those who believe their fitness levels are better than they actually are, or to report pack on groups of clients at the same time.
