FRANKSTON is one of eight councils across Victoria participating in the first stage of the VicHealth Water in Sports grant program to promote “healthy choices” at sports club canteens and kiosks.

Council will receive $84,000 in funding over two years to work with Peninsula Health to increase “availability, access and promotion of healthy drinks at council-owned sport and recreation facilities alongside local sporting clubs” (“Sugary drinks ‘out of sight'”, The Times 12/2/18).

The Water in Sports initiative was officially launched in Frankston last Tuesday (13 February) at Ballam Park South Pavilion.

Council will work from April with sports clubs and centres to downplay the promotion of sugary soft drinks in favour of healthier water.
