The First Edil participates in the I Health Week organized by the San Fernando school, which includes workshops on postural education, healthy eating, zumba, relaxation and first aid.

The Mayor of Lorca, Fulgencio Gil, participated this morning in the Health Week that is being developed at the San Fernando school, where he stated that "the best investment that can be made nowadays in public health matters of all citizens is to educate our children in healthy habits from an early age, in fact we have to be able to convey to them the need to have a healthy diet and correct routines in aspects such as food and postural habits. of the main epidemics that are affecting the very earliest generations, as is the case of obesity, we are talking about a reality that we also have to fight from home, since the responsibility for our children to have the resources and the tools necessary to avoid overweight and poor nutrition is the whole of society.

Fulgencio Gil, who has been accompanied by the director of the school, Ginesa Marín, and the coordinator of this Health Week, Mari Huertas Gilberte, recalled that on behalf of the health agencies has already been the alarm to confront the challenge of fighting obesity especially among our youth.

For this we must raise awareness about the implementation of healthy lifestyle habits, moving away from a sedentary lifestyle, relying on sports practice as the main and effective alternative.

The First Edil, who has attended the school together with the councilors of Health and Education, María del Carmen Ruiz and Francisco Montiel, has affirmed that the best guarantee of future for our children is a good diet and physical activity.

Educating in these habits is the best investment we can make.

This type of actions that throughout this week carries out the San Fernando school, have also been carried out throughout the year in almost all schools in our municipality.

The center that today occupies us, for example, includes within its activities of the Week of Health, workshops of first aid given by technicians of the Municipal Service of Emergencies, as well as of healthy feeding (denominated balanced plates) and given by a specialist graduated in human nutrition and dietetics, in addition to a postural hygiene workshop taught by a physiotherapist and a nurse.

The center also offers a relaxation workshop and another Zumba.
