Living Healthily, Living Well in Yarra Ranges—Have Your Say

Yarra Ranges Council is developing its 2013–2017 Health and Wellbeing Plan and is seeking input from the community. We have developed a health profile which has identified a range of health issues across Yarra Ranges.

Council has a role in supporting its community to lead a healthy life, through the provision of services, facilities and infrastructure—for example, community hubs, parks and open space. A key role for Council is advocacy to state and federal government on the health needs of our community. Council also works with service providers to respond to community health needs and issues.

As a resident, visitor, business owner or service provider in Yarra Ranges, your opinions are important. We are keen to hear about your experience of healthy living in Yarra Ranges. Do you find it easy to eat healthily and stay active? Do you have any concerns about your health or the health of those close to you?
