The Go for Life Fitline, a phone line that supports and motivates people to get active, is now available in Kilkenny, thanks to Go for Life and Kilkenny Recreation & Sports Partnership. Kilkenny is a great place to be active and the FitLine will provide information about facilities, clubs, classes and groups around the county.

A big part of how we stay active is to form active habits. FitLine also advises people on setting up activity routines that they can do alone or with other people, whatever suits their lifestyle.

Stella O’Connor, a FitLine user from Drogheda, has reaped great benefits from it so far. She started out walking on her own, then with a neighbour and now Stella says “The FitLine mentors give me great encouragement… and I’ve taken up set dancing and other exercise which I really enjoy”.

Kilkenny Recreation & Sports Partnership is committed to promoting healthy living and personal development through recreational and sporting activity within all age groups, and throughout the whole community of Kilkenny City and County. The Sports Partnership provides support and assistance across a range of areas such as Sports Development, Physical Activity Provision, Education and Training, Information Provision and Leadership & Management.  Further details on Kilkenny Local Sports Partnership are available on www.krsp.ie
