Gym and Swim PARC Active Pathways Subsidised Membership
Overview
The Peninsula Leisure ‘Active Pathways’ program helps remove barriers to exercise and social activities. Eligible participants can now join the Peninsula Aquatic Recreation Centre (PARC) Active Pathways program with a small fee, thanks to help from Peninsula Leisure and Reclink Australia.
Health and wellbeing will be more accessible in Frankston City thanks to a new partnership between Peninsula Leisure and Reclink Australia.
The partnership, which began as a successful pilot program in March 2023, aims to provide affordable and inclusive pathways for individuals experiencing disadvantage to lead healthier, more active lives.
At the core of this collaboration is Peninsula Leisure’s ‘Active Pathways’ program, which helps to reduce barriers to physical activity and social connection. Eligible participants are now able to join as a Peninsula Aquatic Recreation Centre (PARC) Active Pathways member, with a minimal contribution, thanks to subsidies provided by Peninsula Leisure and Reclink Australia.
The new Active Pathways program is open to residents of Frankston, with priority given to those who are disengaged from physical activity and face greater challenges to achieving health and wellbeing. This includes individuals experiencing financial hardship, those from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds, people living with disabilities, Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander community members, women, girls, and the LGBTIQ+ community.
