Physical Activity Strategy

Brimbank residents are amongst some of the most vulnerable communities to a range of health issues.

The Physical Activity Strategy (PDF 3.3MB) is Council’s commitment to support and develop physical activity participation as part of its broader health and wellbeing approach.
