In October, Cities for Better Health will share a stand-out example of activating and maintaining engagement with children and vulnerable youth through physical activity.
Join us for a deep-dive webinar highlighting how Mills Club, a freestyle sports association in Copenhagen, has attracted over 500 youth members and nurtured an inclusive environment that children, especially those with behavioural challenges, have found immensely supportive.
Increasing opportunities for skating and scootering by providing a
safe space where children can practice has provided an opportunity to
mentor children, help them navigate apprenticeships, and even find
paths to employment.
Webinar: Improving health equity among young people
through freestyle sports
Date: 08 October 2024
Time: 16:00 – 17:00 (CEST)
We are delighted to welcome Jasper Schipperijn of the University of Southern Denmark who will talk about the built environment and the importance of active play in young person's formative years.
We will also meet some club members and hear directly from Bonny Madsen, Founder and manager of Mills Club. Join us for insights into how to replicate these successful strategies in your own community, helping to create more inclusive, healthy environments for young people.
