FitLine is a volunteer-led telephone mentoring service that supports people aged 50+ to be more active.
It is designed to help people who want to feel healthier but just don’t have the motivation, confidence or information to get moving.
“We are launching a call-out for FitLine participants. It’s a nationwide initiative that has supported many people to date and we’re excited to be growing FitLine in 2024.
“If you sign up as a FitLine participant you will receive regular calls from our friendly volunteers who understand the challenges of getting active. They will discuss your life situation and preferences and can offer suggestions to encourage you to be more active,” Meg Hegarty, FitLine Coordinator with Age & Opportunity’s Active Programme, said.
FitLine is a free initiative of Age & Opportunity, a national organisation that provides a range of opportunities for older people who want to get more involved in arts and culture, sport and physical activity, civic engagement and personal development.
FitLine is an initiative within Age & Opportunity’s Active programme, funded by Sport Ireland and the HSE.
If you are interested in joining FitLine as a participant, or if you work with others (for example as a GP, Physiotherapist, Social Prescriber ) and you would like to refer someone with their agreement, call us on freephone 1800 303 545 or email [email protected].
