Date of event: 5th November 2009
Organised by: NWHPAF
Venue: Aintree Racecourse, Liverpool
Report by: Louise Robinson, Programme Officer, Target: Wellbeing
The North West Health and Physical Activity Forum are a voluntary organisation whose aim is to promote good practice and networking opportunities for people working in health and physical activity. This is similar to Target: Wellbeing's aims, so it was an interesting opportunity to go along and see how somebody else does it!
My highlights of the day were key speaker Nick Cavill talking about the impact of health on the economy; learning how the Angel Centre in Salford are using a social enterprise model to work in partnership around health and wellbeing and seeing one of the delivery organisations that works with Target: Wellbeing being heavily involved in the day - Cycling Projects. I also had a very interesting conversation over lunch with one of the key speakers about his experiences of living in China!
Also on the day NWHPAF launched their new website - which is a really good resource for people working in this field.
