Good Boost Wellbeing Limited (Good Boost) is a rapidly growing UK SME delivering cutting-edge health & wellbeing technology. Good Boost's expertise in aquatic rehabilitation, gamification and AI-technology will co-design, develop and deploy a community rehabilitation service with the potential to save the NHS £21.36m by 2030\. Combined with the collaboration, expertise and network of the project partners & sub-contractors to expand the combined aqua-land community rehabilitation technology, the project stands to generate a post-project ROI of 23x by 2030\.**Unmet Need**Musculoskeletal disorders (MSKDs), such as arthritis, back pain and falls fractures represent over 22% of the ill-health burden in the UK, costing the economy and NHS £100bn+ per year. Disproportionately impacting older adults, low income and BAME citizens, they create deep health inequalities. MSKD prevalence is rising, waiting times increasing and significant challenges are ahead to address backlogs post-COVID (CSP, 2020). Solutions are needed to deliver MSK-rehabilitation that don't require additional NHS resources.Additionally, aquatic activity is the 2nd most preferred exercise for older adults, second only to walking, and 82% of the UK population live within 2-miles of a public swimming pool.**Solution**Good Boost's learnings and development over the last 18-months have highlighted the need for digital aquatic rehab hardware to create a solution that can quantify movement/effort in water-based exercise. Creating progress feedback for users and the ability for gamified aquatic rehabilitation. This will build on top of Good Boost's existing AI-aquatic rehab exercise SaaS solution. The aquatic component will be complimented by a gamified land-exercise programme at-home, to be completed in-between swimming pool sessions. Good Boost's existing swimming pool operator clients represent an existing UK roll-out opportunity of 640+ locations as future 'aqua-rehab hubs', meeting the unmet need with a model that's locally accessible, motivational and affordable for older adults.**Market Opportunity**There is no equivalent digital aquatic/gamified technology and Good Boost have the unique and niche skills, expertise, partnerships and existing IP to capitalise on this opportunity. 2.4bn people need rehabilitation globally and there are 25.5m swimming pools on the planet, representing a large future international commercial opportunity. The annual global and UK addressable/serviceable markets are $21B/£317M and £10.5M/£2.6M respectively.**Objectives**This industrial research project will complete product co-design, development, piloting, data collection, evaluation, manufacturing processes development and preparation for rapid post-project commercialisation. Creating a gamified, aqua-land rehabilitation product for older adults which will address MSK challenges facing the NHS and reduce health inequalities.

Good Boost Wellbeing Limited（Good Boost）是一家快速发展的英国中小企业，提供尖端的健康和健康技术。Good Boost在水上康复，游戏化和人工智能技术方面的专业知识将共同设计，开发和部署社区康复服务，到2030年可能为NHS节省2136万英镑。结合项目合作伙伴和分包商的合作，专业知识和网络，以扩展组合式水陆社区恢复技术，该项目将在2030年之前产生23倍的项目后投资回报率。未满足的需求 ** 肌肉骨骼疾病（MSKD），如关节炎、背痛和福尔斯骨折，占英国不良健康负担的22%以上，每年给经济和NHS造成1000亿英镑以上的损失。不均衡影响老年人，低收入和BAME公民，他们造成了深刻的健康不平等。MSKD患病率正在上升，等待时间增加，在解决COVID后的积压问题方面面临重大挑战（CSP，2020）。需要解决方案来提供不需要额外NHS资源的MSK康复。此外，水上活动是老年人第二大首选运动，仅次于步行，82%的英国人口居住在公共游泳池2英里内。**解决方案 **Good Boost在过去18个月的学习和发展突出了数字水上康复硬件的需求，以创建一个可以量化水上运动/努力的解决方案。为用户创建进度反馈和游戏化水上康复的能力。这将建立在Good Boost现有的AI水上康复运动SaaS解决方案之上。水上运动部分将由一个游戏化的土地行使计划在家里补充，将在游泳池会议之间完成。Good Boost现有的游泳池运营商客户代表了英国现有的640多个地点的推广机会，作为未来的“水上康复中心”，满足了未满足的需求，并为老年人提供了一个本地可访问，激励和负担得起的模型。市场机会 ** 没有同等的数字水产/游戏化技术，Good Boost拥有独特的利基技能、专业知识、合作伙伴关系和现有知识产权，可以利用这一机会。全球有24亿人需要康复，全球有2550万个游泳池，这代表着未来巨大的国际商业机会。全球和英国的年度可寻址/可服务市场分别为210亿美元/3.17亿英镑和1050万英镑/260万英镑。**目标 ** 该工业研究项目将完成产品共同设计、开发、试验、数据收集、评估、制造工艺开发和项目后快速商业化的准备。为老年人创造一个游戏化的水土地康复产品，这将解决NHS面临的MSK挑战，并减少健康不平等。
