So what to we do - What programme do we as Regional Sports Trusts provide NZ work places

This is where you come in, this Active Workplace blog site is for you to share ideas and post constructive comments. Many Sports Trusts have attempted to introduce Active Workplace programmes or using the other term " interventions" with limited success. At the Active Living Forum in Stunning Hawke's Bay- July 05 we were unable to run the Active work place forum - the industry brain storm of what to do.

We need to discuss the Walk the talk - Buddy system
The work Day Mountaineers
Useful Pedometer schemes
Strength, flexibilty and cardio-respiratory assessment
Exercise programmes
Nutritional / dietary information
Workplace Health - information brochures that already exist
Basic Health evaluation - exit evaluation
The Bus Stop challenge
The TravelSmart walking to work pedometer program
The Heartbeat Challenge Workplace Programme
Lifestyle assessment / recommendation - exit evaluation.
and much much more.
Sport Hawkes Bay will publish your info on this blog site or you can make you own comments
Send active work place info for publishing to brianf@sporthb.net.nz
