Response to parliamentary question on expanding ActiveSG gyms and programmes in Woodlands town
784. Ms Mariam Jaafar: To ask the Acting Minister for Culture, Community and Youth whether more ActiveSG gyms and programmes such as the Combat Age-Related Loss of Muscle series can be made available in Woodlands town.
Response:
Residents in Woodlands have access to a range of public sports facilities, including the ActiveSG gym and Active Health Lab (AHL) at Woodlands Sport Centre, as well as the Woodlands Sports Pavillion which is a Sport-in-Precinct facility.
The AHL offers programmes like the Combat Age-related Loss of Muscle (CALM) programme which targets seniors for frailty prevention, as well as programmes catering to strength training and exercise performance. In response to greater demand and positive feedback, the Woodlands AHL was recently renovated to increase capacity. It also extended its operating hours to include more weekday evenings and Sundays. This enables it to serve even more residents in Woodlands and neighbouring towns.
To improve accessibility for seniors, the CALM programme has also been offered in Active Ageing Centres (AACs) which are located closer to where our seniors stay. This includes the NTUC Health AAC at Kampung Admiralty and the Sree Narayana Mission AAC at Woodlands. More CALM runs will be held in AACs in time to come.
SportSG will explore working with more AACs, as well as the People’s Association and Grassroots Organisations to bring the CALM programme to more seniors in Woodlands.
