WISPA NI Physical Activity Programmes for Women in Belfast

WISPA is a cross community women’s project which works to identify gaps existing in today’s communities with regards to women’s health, providing increased opportunities to access affordable fun based physical activity programmes of choice. The ethos of the programmes we offer is that the women themselves decide what activity they want to do, when it runs and where it runs. This allows women to fe

el ownership and to remove the potential barriers that stopped them from taking part in similar programmes.

It’s International Mental Health Week and the connection between physical and mental health is no longer just a theory — it’s one of the most consistently supported findings in modern health research. 🙌😊

The World Health Organization states that regular physical activity not only improves physical wellbeing, but also “reduces symptoms of depression and anxiety, enhances brain health, and can improve overall well-being.” 💫🫶

This Mental Health Week is a reminder that caring for mental health is not separate from caring for physical health — the two are deeply interconnected. Small actions like:

✅ Walking
✅ Sleeping more
✅ Eating well
✅ Staying hydrated
✅ Moving your body regularly can have measurable effects on both mind and body

If you would like to improve your mental and physical health we have places still available on many of our programmes. Click here to see what's on offer and to register: https://www.wispani.co.uk/whats-on/
