    FVA Lunchtime Learning sessions to support third sector in Fife

    FVA lunchtime learning sessions are aimed at raising the skills and capacities of local third sector providers interested in improving or enhancing their provision in Fife.

    Research into current levels of sedentary behaviour is limited, but we know that adults of working age average about 9.5 hours per day sitting down… Do we know what the impact of that is on our health?  Most of us could benefit from spending less time sitting down, and that applies even if you’re keeping active.

    At this session, Fiona Ashton-Jones and Ann Kerr of Active Fife, will guide us through:

    • An understanding of what sedentary behaviour is
    • A raised awareness of the impacts of sedentary behaviour on health and well-being
    • Exploring why sedentary behaviour is an issue for businesses – including how COVID-19 has heightened the risks
    • Easy solutions that individuals can take to improve their health and well-being.

    Who should attend?

    Anyone in the workplace – particularly small to medium enterprises, and especially those who have sustained periods of inactivity throughout their working day.
