PPA contributes to Love Activity Campaign

PPA Chair Diarmuid Denneny and Vice Chair Jackie Walumbe have contributed to the CSP Love Activity campaign.

The campaign aims to support people who have not been physically active to make small changes and gradually become more active doing things they enjoy. As part of the campaign, the difficulties associated with getting active with a long term condition are acknowledged and condition specific handouts with 'top tips' have been created.

Some physiotherapists have raised concerns that the "Love Activity, Hate Exercise" message is negative, however, the CSP have developed this campaign in consultation with the public and patients through a number of focus groups and market research. You can read about the process and findings underpinning the campaign here... and while you are there, you can sign up for a resource pack.

We encourage our membership to avail of the Love Activity resouces and continue to promote valued activity with patients.
