WHAT IS MADE2MOVE?

Community Made2Move

The Made2Move programme was designed by the PE & Sports Science Department in University College Cork (UCC) and after a successful pilot programme among university students, the programme is now being rolled out by Cork Sports Partnership under the WellComm Active Initiative. Made2Move is a unique physical activity intervention programme which involves a MoveMentor and MoveMentee

The MoveMentee is a person who is currently physically inactive and is looking for support on their journey to becoming more physically active. 

The MoveMentor is a physically active person, and their role is to support:

  • A physically inactive person the MoveMentee to become more active over an 8-week period.
  • The MoveMentee to reach the recommended 150 minutes of physical activity per week, 30 minutes per day over a 5-day period as outlined in the National Physical Activity guidelines.
  • Encourages and motivates their MoveMentee to make the behavioural change to become more active.
