Attendees will hear from FE learners and ambassadors who are leading the way in promoting healthier lifestyles on campus.
ColegauCymru Active Wellbeing Project Manager, Rob Baynham, highlighted the importance of the forums,
"Supporting the mental and physical wellbeing of learners and staff is more important than ever. These forums will provide a platform to share ideas, explore new approaches, and ensure that active wellbeing is embedded across the FE sector in Wales. By working together, we can create thriving environments that enable everyone to reach their full potential."
These forums form part of our wider commitment to building a vision for Active Colleges / Active Lives / Active Wales, ensuring all learners can benefit from the physical and mental health advantages of an active lifestyle.
