Supporting the Physical Activity Strategy
Dumfries Table Tennis Club is one example of how local organisations are helping deliver the Physical Activity Strategy through practical community action.
The club contributes to the Strategy by:
- Creating opportunities for people to be active locally
- Supporting lifelong participation in physical activity
- Reducing barriers to participation
- Building partnerships that support health, wellbeing and social connection
- Providing welcoming spaces where people can connect and belong
Recent partnership work has also explored opportunities to connect people into community-based physical activity through wider health and wellbeing pathways.
Why It Matters
The Physical Activity Strategy recognises that moving more is about more than organised sport.
