Sunshine Coast Council
Sunshine Coast residents looking to make a positive change to their lives this year are being urged to take part in The Lift Project Sunshine Coast, which starts on 8 February.
Registrations are closing soon for the third round of the popular online wellbeing program which is free for all local residents.
Sunshine Coast Lightning star Cara Koenen is proud to be an ambassador and said looking after mental and physical wellbeing was crucial to maintaining a healthy lifestyle.
“This past year has been really tough for so many people and for council to offer a free online wellbeing program that’s easy to access and really inspires people to change their lives is such a great initiative,” Ms Koenen said.
