Not only was REACT effective it was COST EFFECTIVE
Did you hear @TMSnowsill on BBC Radio Devon this morning, talking about findings of the REACT study? @ExeterMed @UofE_Research

Great to this major study on addressing frailty published today - once a week exercise improved physical function and reduced hospital costs, making the intervention COST-SAVING within a two-year timeframe!! @UKSBM_Fellow @ISBNPA
The REACT study is published today @TheLancetPH. Tailored group exercise has long-term positive impact on mobility of people 65 and older and it is cost-effective. Decline in mobility in later life can be prevented.

Great results from the landmark REACT study. Thanks to all our colleagues @UniofBath
A decline in mobility in later life can lead to loss of independence & generate substantial health & social care costs.
See how a landmark programme for people aged 65+ with mobility limitations has shown long-term positive impacts & cost effectiveness.

Much needed positive energy in challenging times for older adults. @TheREACTstudy participants share how the 12 month #group exercise and behavioural programme worked for them. Was the programme effective and cost-effective? We will find out very soon! @UBSportExR @LES_UniBham
