Uplift

Young people face a lot of challenges. What’s happening with studies, at home, work, or with friends can have an impact on your wellbeing and mental health. Sometimes it can feel a bit out-of-control.

Exercise and eating healthy can play a big part in getting you back-on-track, but where do you start?

Uplift is a FREE 8-week active wellness program designed for people aged 12-15 and 16-24 years. Uplift is run by a friendly team of Y NSW staff who support young people to enhance their physical health, and boost overall wellbeing; all whilst having fun and connecting with peers.

What’s included in the program?

•    8 weeks FREE fitness membership at Mount Annan Leisure Centre, including group fitness classes and small group training
•    Gain skills and knowledge around a range of topics, including: exercising safety, the benefits of exercise, goal setting, eating healthy, and positive mental health strategies.

Uplift is for you:

•    If you are aged between 12-15 and 16-24 years
•    Would like support to get back on track with your fitness and wellbeing due to facing some challenges with mental health, stress with studies, family life or friends
