Fighting Fit

Fighting Fit is Manchester Learning Disability Partnership's initiative to promote physical activity, healthy eating and weight management among over 1,000 people who are learning disabled in Manchester.

Many learning disabled people are overweight and many have low levels of exercise.  We are working to help people have better access to opportunities for physical activity and healthier diets.
