Welcome to 2024: Find your people, your purpose and your place at PARC

Welcome to 2024

As we reflect on the transformative year that was 2023, we can’t help but be inspired by our incredible PARC community. The theme of Future You resonated powerfully throughout the year, prompting our members to envision their best selves and map out the journey to their desired health futures. It was a year of progress and a shared commitment to health and wellbeing.

As we step into 2024, we’re inviting our community to express their aspirations through a few simple sentences:

  • The people who motivate me at PARC are ____
  • My purpose at PARC is to____
  • PARC is my _____ place
  • My People. My Purpose. My place at PARC!

Looking ahead, 2024 is poised to be a year of growth and progress. We encourage you to contemplate your health priorities and the role they play in your overall wellbeing. Starting this January, we’ll work with you to reflect on the motivating forces at PARC, your purpose within our community, and the special place PARC holds in your life.

To support your ongoing health journey, keep an eye on our PARC Blog, where we’ll be sharing valuable insights, tips, tricks, recipes, and more. Our blog will serve as a resource hub for all aspects of your wellbeing.

As we kick-start 2024 with a renewed focus on health and wellbeing, remember: we’re here to help. Join us at PARC and embark on a journey that goes beyond physical activity—it’s a journey to find your people, your purpose, and your place. We look forward to seeing you in the Centre, ready to embrace the possibilities of the year ahead.

Let’s kick-start 2024 with a focus on your health and wellbeing. We’re here to help!
