Healthy Active Lifestyles Project (HALP)

HALP provided the learning and inspiration for our Familes in it Together (FIT) programme. Here is some infromation about how it all started.  

In 2008 we were rewarded with a grant to help us expand our support for developing physical activity in the national Healthy Schools standard.

Our work  focused on three main areas:

• Implementing the guidance in the then new HS  Physical Activity Toolkit  through launch events, training and small grants.
• Being healthy, doing well by helping parents and children get active together.
• Investigating barriers to pupils' involvement in Physical Activity at KS3 through a detailed consultation and the development of a pilot programme.
