This exciting volunteer role involves being part of a project to reach a wide range of people and encourage them to use physical activity to improve their health and wellbeing. It also involves raising awareness and understanding with community physical activity providers about how to support people’s mental health. The project is based across Adur, Worthing and surrounding areas and the role could be based in one of these areas or include travelling to different areas should you wish.
