Professor Scarlett McNally will deliver an inspirational talk on her influential paper Exercise: the Miracle Cure which details evidence for the impact of regular small amounts of exercise in the prevention and treatment of common conditions.
Scarlett was lead author for Exercise the miracle cure from the Academy of Medical Royal Colleges in 2015, showing that exercise can reduce the risk of dementia, diabetes, stroke and some cancers by 30%.
Scarlett has been a Consultant Orthopaedic Surgeon in Eastbourne since 2002 and is Honorary Clinical Professor at Brighton and Sussex Medical School and President of the Medical Women’s Federation.
Scarlett is joining us as part of Positive Ageing Month in West Sussex.
