Live Active NI

☀️☀️To celebrate Positive Ageing month we are looking back to one of our major successes during the GOGA programme.

Staying active as we age is important for maintaining physical and mental well-being, and overall quality of life, reducing the risk of diseases, and encouraging independence.

Get Out Get Active Celebration Event 2023🎉🎉🎉

We were delighted to have representatives from Live Active NI, Disability Sport NI and Armagh City, Banbridge & Craigavon Borough Council attending the in Birmingham today.

GOGA has been running in Northern Ireland since 2016 with programmes in Armagh City, Banbridge & Craigavon Borough Council, Derry City & Strabane District Council, Mid and East Antrim Borough Council and Mid Ulster District Council. It was great to share successes and learn how GOGA is creating a legacy in other areas!

Thanks to Spirit of 2012 for all the input and support which has allowed GOGA to be such a success!

Great to host Activity Alliance and Wavehill in Northern Ireland, meeting our delivery partners and exploring how best to demonstrate the wider impact of the Get Out Get Active programme.
