Hi and thank you all for your kind and great help you do,
I Have a question regarding my husbands severe depression, now he has been on a weight loss program with his doctors [this has now just finished] and it was thought a very good idea as exercise would not only help his weight but also as I understand is good in helping with depression, now even though he no longer sees the nurse to monitor his weight he still continues to try to exercise, I Do help to prompt him to get out for a walk/cycle most days, would this count as Therapy under descriptors 3c,d,e and f ? thank you again.

You would need to show that the exercise was prescribed or recommended by a health professional and that failing to do it would is likely to result in a deterioration of his health.
