1.15: Recreation
Recognition of recreation in addressing health and social issues. Other Information:
The ACT Government recognises the benefits of physical activity for good health. National guidelines specify that adults participate
in 30 minutes of moderate-intensity physical activity on most, preferably all, days. Future action to support increased physical
activity will include: • development and implementation of Be Active ACT, a physical activity framework for ACT Health • continued
promotion of the Find thirty. It’s not a big exercise® physical activity campaign • establishment of a healthy lifestyle website
to facilitate referral by linking general practitioners with appropriate support for lifestyle modification, including allied
health professionals, community organisations and the fitness industry.
