Health and wellbeing

The municipality of Kihniö promotes the well-being and health of its residents as part of all its activities. The goal is to support the good life, smooth everyday life and community spirit of the municipality's residents.

Promoting well-being and health (hyte work) means concrete actions in the municipality that strengthen physical, mental and social well-being. The work is based on up-to-date information about the well-being of the municipality's residents and close cooperation with various sectors, organizations, companies and residents.

In Kihniö, well-being is built, among other things:

  • by supporting a healthy and active lifestyle
  • by strengthening inclusion and cohesion
  • by promoting a safe and comfortable living environment
  • by supporting the well-being of children, young people, working-age people and the elderly
  • by developing services based on the needs of local residents

The promotion of well-being and health is guided by the municipality's well-being plan and report, which define objectives, measures and monitoring. The work is coordinated by the well-being director together with different sectors and stakeholders.

In Kihniö, we believe that well-being comes from community and the opportunity to live your own life in a safe and natural environment.
