To foster a healthier and more connected community, Noosa Council’s Living Well program has launched a series of activities specifically designed for young people aged 12 to 24.

The diverse range of activities aims to connect community organisations and health programs with young locals, aligning with the Living Well program’s overarching goal of promoting a balanced and fulfilling lifestyle.

The weekly offerings include free yoga flow sessions, art classes, meditation workshops, and a weekly drop-in centre, ensuring there is something for everyone.

Community Programs Officer, Josiah Tharps said the new initiative helps support mental, physical, and spiritual wellbeing within the youth community.

“The free sessions are run by professional highly skilled facilitators, bringing the best classes available,” Mr Tharps said.

Mr Tharps said another highlight is next month’s Thrive Youth Festival in Pomona.

“We are looking to engage our youth in the hinterland and this new festival promises a dynamic blend of entertainment, education and fun,” he said.

The festival is on 11 April at Pomona Community House as part of Queensland Youth Week.
