Heartline Magazine April - June 2006
Keeping fit for 2007
Plans are already well advanced for the Healthy Lifestyle
Seminar for Business and Professional Executives, hosted by the Heart & Stroke
Foundation of Barbados in partnership with Sagicor General Insurance Inc. The
Seminar will be held this year on Thursday, 6th July in the familiar setting of
Sherbourne Conference Centre.
Under the theme “Healthy Heart Living – Keeping Fit For
2007”, participants can look forward to dynamic presentations by leading
physicians and professionals, including Tony Marshall, President of the Barbados
Cricket association, who will set the scene for the morning’s proceedings when
he speaks on “Cricket World Cup 2007 – A Great Opportunity”.
Dr. Adrian Lorde, Family Physician and Vice President of the
Barbados Olympic Association will examine “Skipping to get fit”. This particular
topic will provide excellent tips on exercises that executives can participate
in even without leaving their office. Courtesy of Sagicor General all
participants will receive a skipping rope to keep on “Keeping Fit For 2007”.
Dr. Colin Alert, Family Physician, will address the topic
“Physical Activity and Health in Barbados” looking particularly at the
connections between being fit and enjoying good health.
Professor Henry Fraser will conclude the formal proceedings
with a discourse on “Live like you love life” combining the principles of
healthy lifestyles with positive attitudes.
As usual, the seminar will be facilitated by Dr. Basil
Springer of the Caribbean Business Enterprise Trust and there will be
interactive Round Table discussion on each topic, with summations by the
speakers.
The programme begins at 7.45 a.m. with a healthy style
breakfast and goes through to 12.35 p.m., when participants will be entertained
to lunch, and there will be a guest speaker.
David Deane, Managing Director of Sagicor General Insurance
Inc. said “We are delighted to be partnering with the Heart & Stroke Foundation
in presenting the Annual Healthy Lifestyle Seminar. We know as insurers that the
promotion of a fitness lifestyle for executives will be good not only for the
companies at which they work but also for the individuals themselves.”
Thanks to the very generous partnership sponsorship from
Sagicor General the Heart & Stroke Foundation is able to offer attendance at
the seminar at an especially discounted all inclusive cost of $100. This
registration fee includes seminar literature, which is a very handy reference
document, plus breakfast, refreshments and lunch. A discount of 10% will be
offered to any company registering ten delegates or more.
This is a seminar not to be missed, and interested persons
are invited to register early to be assured of places at GET FIT FOR BUSINESS,
which promises to be an enjoyable and learning experience. Bookings may be made
