Physical Activity and Health Alliance

The Physical Activity and Health Alliance is a joint collaboration facilitated by NHS Health Scotland on behalf of the Scottish Executive in order to support the Physical Activity workforce of Scotland in the implementation of the Scottish Physical Activity Strategy, ‘Let’s Make Scotland More Active’ (Scottish Executive, 2003).

The Alliance provides an e-based interactive vehicle for two-way communication coupled with a series of events, through which it can:

• build capacity across the Physical Activity workforce
• disseminate existing evidence, policy and practice
• provide opportunities to enhance knowledge, enable learning and improve practice
• act as a national forum for sharing ideas, promoting discussion and stimulating debate.
