"Making personalised health coaching accessible, engaging and sustainable, for everyone."
Vision Health was created with one simple mission: to help more people live healthier, happier and longer lives. Building on the success of the award-winning Vision Fitness group, we combine expert coaching, evidence-based health assessments and innovative technology to deliver personalised support that fits around everyday life.
We believe lasting health isn't achieved through quick fixes or short-term diets. It's built through expert guidance, achievable goals, regular monitoring and small, sustainable lifestyle changes that become lifelong healthy habits.

Your data stays in the UK. Your privacy and security come first. Our platform is designed with privacy and safeguarding at its core. All data is securely stored within the United Kingdom and managed in line with UK data protection legislation.
A UK health service that brings coaching, welcoming local gyms and the Vision Health app together into one pathway. We support individuals, gym members and NHS Primary Care referrals to help people build lasting healthy habits.
Who is Vision Health for?
Anyone who wants to feel healthier, more active and more energetic. Many of our members are aged 45 and above and are not regular gym-goers. If you're being referred by your GP, thinking about your local gym, or considering the app, you're in the right place.
I've been referred by my GP. What happens next?
Share a few details and we'll contact you to arrange a time to talk or meet. Get started here. You'll then be introduced to a dedicated Vision Health coach. Your first session is a baseline assessment: health measurements, mobility, strength and cardiovascular fitness. From there we build a personalised programme, delivered through the app and in coaching sessions, over a minimum five-week programme with regular reviews.
How does the NHS referral pathway work for clinicians?
We provide a structured lifestyle behaviour change referral service for NHS Primary Care, General Practice and other providers. Programmes are tailored to clinical need and include baseline & functional assessments, personalised activity goals, coaching, exercise programmes, validated wellbeing questionnaires and end-of-programme outcome reports. Authorised NHS users have access to a secure reporting dashboard.
Where are your gyms?
Four gyms in the Vision Fitness family, serving communities across Hertfordshire, Essex and Cambridge: Henham (Essex), Bishop's Stortford, Leventhorpe (Sawbridgeworth) and Girton (Cambridge). Each shares the same philosophy of welcoming, supportive environments for every age and ability.
Who is Ollie?
Ollie Emsden is the founder of Vision Health and the Vision Fitness group. Vision Fitness has received national recognition four times, including Boutique Gym of the Year (2019, 2021), Gym of the South (2021) and Outdoor Training Facility (2022).
Where is my data stored?
All data is securely stored in the United Kingdom and managed under UK GDPR and relevant European privacy standards. Safeguarding and privacy are at the heart of the platform.
Is there a joining fee or contract?
No contract and no joining fee. Membership is flexible so you can focus on your health, not the paperwork.
