Louth Local Sports Partnership aims to encourage people of all ages & abilities to get involved in physical activity as a means of promoting a healthy lifestyle while having fun & socialising with others. Physical activity is a fundamental aspect of a healthy lifestyle & can help improve cardio fitness, muscular endurance & bone strength. It can reduce the risk of diseases such as cancer, diabetes & cardiovascular diseases, while also being attributed to positive mental & social well-being. Physical activity Adds life to years & years to life. It is recommended that people over the age of 55 years should be getting at least 30 minutes of physical activity 5 days per week.
Louth Local Sports Partnership has developed a versatile older adult programme offering that provides a wide range of activities to enable people of all abilities to incorporate physical activity into their daily lives. Activities include walking programmes, adapted circuit sessions, strength & balance classes, and yoga.
