Training Opportunities
Move More and Live Longer Better

A training package has been developed by SASP for workforces in the voluntary and community sector, housing providers and social care around how to have meaningful and positive conversations about physical activity within their everyday roles.
Move More and Live Longer Better training covers the following key areas:
- Importance and benefits of physical activity
- Types of activity and national guidelines
- Practical tips and common barriers to staying active
- Positive conversation skills
- Signposting and resources
Training is delivered in two parts, allowing time between sessions to put the learning into practice before returning to share experience and troubleshooting any challenges together. Ongoing support will be available to workforces following training completion.
Move More and Live Longer Better training is now available to book. For further information or to express an interest, please get in contact.
