PHA welcomes emphasis on physical activity

The PHA welcomes Sport NI's Active People: Healthy Communities publication, which highlightes the important relationship of community physical activity and public health.

The PHA was delighted to be involved in the steering group for this initiative as the benefits of physical activity to health are substantial. The PHA is continuing to invest in community initiatives throughout Northern Ireland via local Physical Activity Implementation Groups. We look forward to further developing the relationship which already exists between the PHA and Sport NI to promote the significance of physical activity and sport at all levels for the good health and wellbeing of the population.
