Regular physical activity supports healthy ageing, helps prevent chronic disease and improves mental wellbeing — particularly in regional communities where social connection matters.
Health Promotion Coordinator at Gateway Health, Sarah Nevin said the classes provide a supportive way for people of all ages and fitness levels to build confidence using the equipment.
“They’re welcoming, social and a great way to stay active outdoors,” Ms Nevin said.
Health Promotion Officer at Alpine Health, Monique Hillenaar said the partnership reflects a shared commitment to prevention and community wellbeing.
“These sessions help people stay strong, independent and socially connected — all key ingredients for long-term health,” Ms Hillenaar said.
Participants are encouraged to stay for a coffee afterwards to continue the social connection.
