Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Physical Function - six minute walk test[baseline and at 6 months];Level of self reported physical activity using the Active Australia Questionnaire.[baseline and at 6 months];Changes in the concentration of glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c) indicating changes in plasma glucose over time will be assessed through regular pathology testing initiated by referring general practitioners. Patients will be asked to bring their most recent pathology results to each assessment session[baseline and at 6 months]

Secondary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Self reported physical function - Medical Outcomes Short-Form 36-Item Health Survey (SF-36)[baseline and at 6 months];Blood Pressure<br>Brachial blood pressure will be measured by sphygmomanometry using standardised techniques after five minutes of seated rest.[baseline and at 6 months];Body Composition<br>Two indicators of body composition will be measured. These are body mass index and waist circumference.[baseline and at 6 months]
