Did you know that physical activity has significant benefits for health, both physical and mental, and can help to prevent and manage over 20 chronic conditions and diseases, including some cancers, heart disease, type 2 diabetes and depression? This webinar will delve into the Active Partnerships Pathways Project, which aims to bridge the gap between health and physical activity sectors. The project focuses on creating effective physical activity pathways for individuals with long-term health conditions, ensuring they receive appropriate support and resources. Participants will learn about the project's core components, implementation strategies, and best practices from existing initiatives, all aimed at enhancing community engagement in physical activity and improving health outcomes.
