The Be Active Cockburn website was set up in January 2009 to provide information about the importance of regular physical activity and where to ‘be active’ in the City of Cockburn.

 

The original Be Active Cockburn website was created by the City of Cockburn with support from the Western Australian Local Government Association, Premier’s Physical Activity Taskforce, Lotterywest and South Metropolitan Public Health Unit.

In September 2009 the website expanded to include TravelSmart information with the introduction of a three year TravelSmart project to the City of Cockburn.

In June 2010 additional healthy lifestyles information was added to the website including nutrition, alcohol, smoking, and mental health webpages.

The website is managed by the City of Cockburn Health Services team and the South Metropolitan Public Health Unit and is supported by the Department of Transport.
