    When it comes to getting active, Manningham locals prefer walking, 3x3 basketball, futsal and dance.

    Late last year, we asked you which sport and recreation activities you’d like to see offered in our Active Manningham program for 2023-25. The results are in, and here’s what you told us!

    We’re using this information to plan the next three years of the program, incorporating as many of your preferences as we can.

    Keep an eye on our What’s on page to find sports and recreation activities you can get involved in.

  • Breaking down barriers for a more Active Manningham

    We're creating a program of free and discounted sport and recreation activities and is asking community members what they would like included.

    Active Manningham is a dual-purpose program aiming to improve social and physical wellbeing and activate local facilities and open spaces.

    We're surveying people who live, work and play in Manningham about the activities they would like to participate in and where, barriers that prevent them from getting active and ideas for making recreation and sporting opportunities accessible and inclusive.

    Our Mayor, Cr Michelle Kleinert, said Council hoped the program would empower locals to get more active, more often, over the next three years.

    “We would especially love to hear from people who don’t often take part in community sport and recreation about the kinds of activities or considerations that would inspire them to get involved.

    “We will use your feedback to make the program appealing to people who feel the same way so more locals can keep active and improve their wellbeing.”

    The survey is open until Monday 31 October. Click here to complete the survey.
