Health
The Sports Council for Northern Ireland see sport as a vehicle through which the
programme for Government aspiration for "Working for a Healthier
People" can be realised. With this end in mind the Sports Council works
proactively with the health sector to improve the quality of life for people in
Northern Ireland.
In particular the Sports Council is a member of the NI Physical Activity
Strategy Implementation Group and is actively involved in carrying forward this
significant and strategically important work.
The Sports Council is also involved with the Department of Culture, Arts and
Leisure in contributing to the interdepartmental Drugs and Alcohol Strategy. All
programmes within the Community Sport team are designed with health as a high
priority outcome.
