Keeping Cork Active
FunFit is a community-based physical activity programme for children aged 7-12. The programme has been developed in Cork through an ongoing partnership between Cork Sports Partnership, Cork Kerry Community Healthcare, Health Promotion & Improvement Physical Activity team, and primary care Paediatric Physiotherapists.
A new summer camp format will be coordinated for 2025 as part of pilot.
Access to the summer camp is via HSE referral only for 2025.
Children between the ages of 7 and 12 who have underdeveloped gross movement skills due to a range of diagnoses (or awaiting diagnosis), as well as those who live sedentary lifestyles. Please use the eligibility criteria overleaf as a guide to suitability.
