We're focussing on and supporting people and groups who have low participation levels
We're working to reduce barriers and facilitate access to physical activity opportunities for those who face inequities and lower participation levels.

Finding confidence through Green Prescription
Physical activity reduces rates of diseases such as cancer, heart disease, type 2 diabetes and obesity - and improves life expectancy.
Our Green Prescription programme has helped thousands of clients over the years, including single mum Kerrie who found the support she needed to lead an active lifestyle.
