Our vision is for residents of the Havant area, particularly those who face the greatest inequalities, to have improved opportunities to move more. We want to empower people to lead happier, healthier and more fulfilling lives.
Havant Active Wellbeing is our five-year strategy to reimagine how we move more every day. When we say ‘our’, we mean our collective work. This strategy provides partners working in Havant with a blueprint of how to shift towards a concept of Active Wellbeing – a more integrated health and wellbeing offer that has a positive impact on local strategic priorities, particularly health, the environment, regeneration, economy, housing, transport and community safety.
Many across the area are fortunate to live active and healthy lives, but it is not the same for us all. Inequalities exist and, in many cases, continue to worsen. We want to address this unfairness that affects particular communities, individuals and those who live in specific places, from accessing services and achieving positive health outcomes.
The Active Wellbeing Strategy is jointly owned, delivered and measured in partnership between Havant Borough Council, Hampshire County Council Public Health, Horizon Leisure Trust, NHS Hampshire and IOW, Community First and Energise Me.
The strategy was developed following extensive engagement with stakeholders and our community. Full details of this engagement and the findings can be found by visiting: https://havant.govocal.com/en-GB/projects/active-wellbeing
