Better Health and Happiness
We launched our first program, and outdoor activity camp in Liverpool NSW, in 2014. In 2018 we moved from the positioning of a social enterprise to one of a national health promotion charity with full DGR status.
We have always had the vision of building a fitter, healthier and happier Australia – one community at a time but as our knowledge bank has expanded, our strategy has refined, and our focus is to affect measurable change.
Specifically looking at the burden of chronic health issues such as obesity, diabetic risk, poor mental health; and social issues such as loneliness and isolation. A major subset of which is the growing dependant ageing population.
Get people up, moving, interacting and having fun in local parks, in community halls or in LIVE online forums. Explain and help them understand their health issues. Explain how their lifestyle behaviours can have a vast impact on their enjoyment and quality of life. Explain the importance of diet and get them to review how and what they eat. Above all, show respect and understanding.
We remove the barriers to change. All of our programs are free of charge and run by highly qualified professionals from diverse and interlinking fields of expertise. We believe strongly in collaboration and with our partners and community groups we identify the needs of a community and address these through tailored activity and health literacy programs. Our environments are non-intimidating and all welcoming.
Our programs are outcome driven and we know we can effect positive change. We measure every interaction and can demonstrate our impact on physical, mental and social health. We can show positive shifts in health risk and share, with permission, stories of achievement that demonstrate happier, healthier and more confident lives. Every program we offer promotes the benefits of positive change and every positive step is celebrated. We have endorsement from clinical professionals and specialists.
