Active Wellbeing

We want to hear what being active means to you, what stops you from being as active as you'd like to be and what would make it easier for you to be active.

The Active Wellbeing Project is a partnership with Havant Borough Council, Hampshire County Council, Horizon Leisure Trust, NHS, Energise Me and Community First to help our communities be fitter, happier and healthier.

We want to hear from you to inform our plans supporting people living in the borough of Havant to continue or become more physically active and improve your health and happiness.

Your views will be vital in making sure that what we do helps you and those in our area.

Comments you submit on the below activity will be published - if you would prefer to comment privately, please click here.

What do we mean by being active?

This can cover pretty much anything that gets you up and about - whether you're preparing for your next marathon or are part of your local sports club, all the way through to just enjoy gardening, walking to your local shop or getting up the stairs without losing your breath!

When thinking about your response to our questions, being active will mean different things to different people, and can be anywhere along this range of activities.

What do we want to find out?

All of the organisations in our partnership are working towards - amongst other priorities - supporting the people of our borough to be fitter, happier and healthier.

Your feedback on what being active means to you, what stops you from being as active as you'd like to be and what would make it easier will be vital in informing what comes next.

What will we do with your feedback?

Your feedback will be crucial in working out what we focus our work on in the next few years. We want to understand your views and feelings towards being active so that the ways in which we support our residents cover what they need, by hopefully removing some of the barriers that stop you from being active and give you some of the things that make it easier.

This will inform the strategy that we all work to, and the action plan of things we can do to get there!

We have some exciting activities for you to take part in - scroll down for more info ...
