The 'Active Health' project will be done through a grant from the Ministry of Health, Social Services and Equality and the Spanish Federation of Municipalities and Provinces.
This new project aims to promote physical activity and healthy eating among young people.
The City Council of Puerto Lumbreras will launch the 'Active Health' project to promote the practice of regular physical activity and the acquisition of healthy living habits among lumbrerenses, especially among neighborhood associations and youth aged 12 to 18 years.
The 'Active Health' project will be done through a grant from the Ministry of Health, Social Services and Equality and the Spanish Federation of Municipalities and Provinces to the municipality of Puerto Lumbreras, which is integrated in the Spanish Healthy Cities Network.
Thus, this new project, which will take place soon, aims to promote physical activity and healthy eating among citizens in order to combat sedentary lifestyles and prevent and improve various diseases and reduce risk factors for heart disease .
Specifically, the project has a budget of 2,980 euros, 1,344 euros of which are provided by the Spanish Federation of Municipalities and Provinces and 1,636 euros are contributed by the City of Puerto Lumbreras.
Regarding the methodology of the project, it is noteworthy that in a first phase the participants will acquire the right skills to have the necessary training.
Afterwards, participants will determine how and how they will achieve better health with practical examples that will perform as trips, visits to sports and healthy activities in the municipality.
Thus the 'Active Health' project aims to involve the management teams of the schools in the municipality, families, youth and neighborhood associations, among other groups, in promoting physical activity and adequate food as healthy lifestyle habits.
Thus, the project will offer citizens different actions as an alternative to sedentary leisure activities, which now occupy most of their free time large numbers of children and youth.
Thus, activities that involve physical activity and healthy lifestyles and active transport (walking and cycling) for journeys of citizens in their daily lives through the town will be promoted.
