Women aged 18 to 65 are invited to participate in a research project which is investigating how physical activity levels for women in the City of Casey can be improved.

Federation University and the City of Casey want to hear from women, including women from culturally and linguistically diverse communities, who are not active on a regular basis about what is holding you back from being physically active.

The research project will involve completing a short survey about yourself and your current level of physical activity. In-person workshops will then be held to help gain a deeper understanding of the challenges you are facing, and to identify opportunities for you to become more active.

Feedback from participants will help to plan and deliver physical activity programs for women in the City of Casey in the future. Following the workshops, participants will be contacted to see what changes have been made in their physical activity.

As a thank you, each participant will receive a $50 gift card, plus vouchers to access various physical activities in the City of Casey.
