EXPERIMENTAL PROTOCOL AND METHODS - Participants will be recruited through poster advertisement and non-incentivised involvement. Potential participants will be sent a Patient Information Leaflet for the study and a Consent Form. Following consent, the participant will be screened by telephone to ensure participants meet the inclusion criteria and also to exclude participants who would not be eligible on their medical history and activity status alone. Eligible participants from screening will be invited for a formal assessment. The assessment will confirm that information given in the screening remains accurate and a focussed physical examination of the knee. Participants eligible at the end of end of assessment will be randomly allocation into the control and intervention group, both lasting 12 weeks. Block randomisation will be used and this will be prepared by an independent person. Participants, irrespective of their allocation, will complete the following questionnaires: KOOS (KOOS: Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score), IPAQ (IPAQ: International Physical Activity Questionnaire), VAS for knee pain (VAS: Visual Analogue Scale), OKS (OKS: Oxford Knee Score), SF36 (SF36: Short Form Health Survey) and WOMAC (WOMAC: Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Arthritis Index). The intervention group will be allocated a walking activity of 6,000 per day. Participants will be provided with a pedometer and diary so walking activity can be recorded and monitored. Weekly scores will be collected via telephone contact with the participant. The control group will be provided with the standard physical activity advice that participants would receive from their GP (GP: General Practitioner) regarding physical activity levels. Both groups will complete a further IPAQ questionnaire at the mid point of the study at 6 weeks to monitor physical activity levels. At 12 weeks at the end of study, all participants will repeat the initial questionnaires, KOOS, IPAQ, VAS, OKS, SF36 and WOMAC and the performance based tests.
