Purchase and install exercise equipment in Rowe St Park

Rowe St Park is a residential park situated in what was once called the “Commission House” area. It is home to a very diverse demographic, with surrounding residents from a variety of cultures: Aboriginal, Asian and Pacific Islander, just to name a few. The exercise equipment would encourage surrounding residents to exercise and improve their fitness, health and wellbeing while they are at the park. It is envisaged that the exercise equipment would attract additional users to the park, bringing the community together to create a fun and vibrant atmosphere.

Demographics surrounding the park has a large number of overweight and unfit people (many with diabetes). Most are manual labourers.
The equipment is intended to encourage people to exercise and take positive steps to improve their fitness, health, wellbeing and social interaction while using the park. Use by labourers would strengthen backs, helping to reduce workplace injuries, reducing visits to medical facilities. I hope it would also encourage younger people to become more active.
The intended equipment would enable entry level exercise as well as more advanced activities, so as to support a variety of people of different fitness levels.
