GoJozi Healthy Lifestyle
ZOO LAKE - THE GoJozi Healthy Lifestyle will be held by the City of Johannesburg on 27 June at the Johannesburg Zoo Lake from 7am to 1pm.
The initiative is to promote healthy eating, education and active living.
In the spirit of the Joburg 2040 strategy and its slogan, We are all players, the initiative seeks to tackle the risk factors associated with obesity, unhealthy diet and physical inactivity. It will serve to instil a culture of healthy lifestyle choices in Johannesburg.
Community members are invited to the GoJozi Healthy Lifestyle initiative which will have activities such as an 8km cycle, a 5km fun walk, aerobics, health screening for diabetes, hypertension and cancer, a kiddies corner and a market day vegetable sale.
Councillor Nonceba Molwele, member of the Mayoral Committee for Health and Social Development Department in Johannesburg said, “The event will provide an ideal opportunity to find out about the wide range of exciting programmes the City of Johannesburg and other organisations offer to the community.”
By 2040, the City of Johannesburg aims to achieve a substantially enhanced quality of life for all. It envisages development initiatives that enable self-sustainability, improved health and life expectancy.
