This is what you can expect:The Sons of the West is a FREE 10-week men&#x27;s health program.  It is run by the Western Bulldogs Community Foundation in partnership with local councils and community health services across western Victoria. The program is free thanks to support from major partner WorkSafe Victoria, Department of Health and Human Services, Australian Multicultural Community Services and Watergardens Town Centre. Each week the program runs for about 2 hours.  In the first hour, you will have the chance to hear from guest presenters about different men&#x27;s health topics. In the second hour, we get out and do some fun and group based exercise. There are loads of giveaways including customised Sons of the West incentives and the chance to win signed merchandise from the Western Bulldogs Football Club.Catch up with other men in your community, get healthy and pick up some free stuff while you’re doing it.  It doesn’t get much better than this! Remember fellas, only sign up if you can commit to coming to as many of the 10 weeks as possible. We want to ensure you get the most out of the program.Please note, due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, extra precautions including reduced venue capacity (smaller group sizes), extra hygiene practices and an online program option for those that prefer will be in place to keep everyone safe.
