The Active Living in Fawkner Project is a 2 year Go For Your Life funded project that aims to increase activity levels of older people in the suburb of Fawkner. Through the development of local partnerships, the project is working to increase the number of physical activity options available to older people in the area, as well as raising community awareness & participation in these options. A key strategy of this project is to work with local General Practitioners to increase referrals to two local community health Physiotherapists for individual physical activity assessments. The local Physiotherapists will then assist the older patients to connect with a suitable local activity. The project is being supported by a social marketing campaign.
