Active Halton Report Card
Active Halton is moving forward! Our partners, members, allies and staff champion the importance and value of physical activity for everyone in Halton.
With support from the Healthy Communities initiative we began a strategic planning process to engage our partners and members in a conversation about where we want to be in the future, and what we need to do to get there. Thank you to all who participated! This process is important to ensure the sustainability and viability of Active Halton. Our strategic plan will lead us from 2011 to 2016.
Active Halton is a network of individuals and organizations that work together to promote active lifestyles for all ages in the Halton community. Active Halton has an ambitious plan to increase the physical activity levels of Halton residents by 20% by 2012. We accomplish our goals through advocacy, coordinated promotional activities, and developing physical activity tools and resources for the Halton community.
We'd like to thank you for your commitment and passion and look forward to working together to continue to build a community where physical activity is an integral part of every citizen's life.
We connect, engage and inspire the Halton community be active.
