Event

The Great Outdoors

09/11/2010

The Great Outdoors is an event delivered by ISPAL and targeted at professionals working to promote the use of outdoor space linked with achieving healthy lifestyles.

This one day interactive seminar will bring together a full cast of the highest quality speakers, all of whom will share their experiences and showcase a series of positive case studies and practical examples that support a more innovative approach to maximising available parks and outdoor green spaces.

At a time when finance is at the heart of the majority of family decisions, promoting a more creative approach to the use of free facilities can only help address the issue of getting more adults achieving their 5 x 30 minutes of physical activity each and every week.

The Great Outdoors will provide delegates with a series of short keynote presentations by industry leaders that aim to promote delegate discussion and debate. We aim to make sure everyone leaves with new ideas and a fresh approach
having been inspired by the presentations, discussion and meeting fellow delegates.
