NSW Health is looking for adults aged 60 years and over to take part in the Healthy and Active for Life Online Study.
So, what is the Healthy and Active for Life Online Study?
Healthy and Active for Life Online is a free program for adults in NSW aged 60 years and older. The program supports people to be active and healthy from the comfort of their own homes.
As part of the study, you will receive either a 10-week, self-guided online healthy lifestyle program with telephone support from a trained health professional, or a set of educational resources that participants can work through in their own time.
To be involved, you need to complete the weekly online sessions, exercises, and phone calls, or read the educational resources or fill in a survey before the program and another survey 12 months later.
Participants who complete both surveys will receive a $30 gift voucher.
To take part you need access to a computer or tablet with internet and space to exercise safely at home.
"If anyone was thinking of joining the program I would say definitely join! It was absolutely excellent and there was a lot of support all the way through it," a program participant said.
