Health, wellness and safety

Health, wellness, and safety initiatives – supporting wellbeing, together

Have an idea for a health, wellness, or safety initiative in your community? Whether it’s offering free yoga in the park, organising meditation classes, or starting a neighbourhood watch or safe walking school bus initiative, these projects help promote healthier, safer, and more connected communities.

Health and wellness initiatives create a positive impact by improving physical and mental wellbeing. They bring people together to prioritise self-care, safety, and fitness and lead to stronger, healthier individuals and a more vibrant community.

Not sure where to start or need a little guidance?

You’re already on the right track! Here’s how to get started.

Brainstorm your idea: Think about what health or wellness activity would benefit your community and help improve the lives of those around you.
Get inspired: Look at other community wellness initiatives that have made a difference, such as free fitness sessions in public spaces or wellness workshops. These ideas can help spark new ways to engage your community in healthier living.
Involve others: Health and wellness projects are more impactful when they’re inclusive. Reach out to local health professionals, fitness enthusiasts, or organisations to help support your initiative and get more people involved.

Your project can improve physical and mental health, increase safety, and create a sense of community. Whether you’re providing opportunities for exercise, promoting mental wellness, or enhancing community safety, your initiative can make a lasting difference for everyone involved.
