Testimonials:
I really appreciate your help through all this and I’m both surprised and stoked at how much having routine exercise is helping with my mental health and attitude towards school.
The one-on-one consultations were particularly impactful for me. The personalized advice and support provided by the Actively Well team helped me create a fitness plan that suited my specific needs and schedule. Additionally, the group fitness classes not only improved my physical fitness but also provided a sense of community and belonging. I made several friends when joining the group fitness classes.
We're able to meet you either online or in person. Head to the Sport and Rec portal to check availability.
If you or someone you know needs additional wellbeing support that falls outside of our Actively Well offerings, please reach out to the Te Papa Manaaki | Campus Care team.
Please note, all support is free and confidential.
