Summary

This trial tests a program called OUTDOOR-FIT, designed to help mildly frail older adults become more physically active. Participants attend weekly workshops, use senior-friendly outdoor exercise equipment, and get support from volunteers and a mobile app. The goal is to see if this approach improves physical activity, confidence, mental well-being, and reduces loneliness, compared to usual care.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
A digitally supported outdoor physical activity program combining workshops, outdoor exercise facilities, volunteer support, and a mobile app.
What this could lead to
If effective, this program could offer a practical, scalable way to help mildly frail older adults stay active, reduce fall risk, and improve mental well-being and social connection.
What could go wrong
This is a relatively small trial, and results may not apply to all older adults. Success depends on participants' engagement and ability to use the app and attend sessions.

Feb 2027

An estimate. Start dates often move.

Expected to finish

Mar 2029

An estimate. End dates often move.

Lead sponsor

Other sponsor

The registry's catch-all category, for sponsors it does not file as a company, a government agency, or a research network.
