Imagine a Nova Scotia where simple movement is part of everyday life. People walk, wheel, stretch, garden and connect with others in ways that support their health, independence and sense of belonging. Movement isn’t limited to exercise or sport. It is woven into how we live, connect and contribute to our community.
Through Make Your Move, we’re helping make movement part of everyday life at every age and stage. That matters in a province where too many children aren’t moving enough, chronic disease rates remain high, our population is aging and social isolation is growing.
There are many ways to Make Your Move. Whether you want to move more in your own life, help create opportunities in your community, lead change through planning and decision-making, or build a healthier workplace, the Foundation can help you get started.
