SAHAM KESIHATAN
SAHAM KESIHATAN
Our vibrant community has different interests, which is why we’ve created Saham Kesihatan in collaboration with M³@Towns, Majlis Ugama Islam Singapura (MUIS) and MENDAKI. Saham Kesihatan empowers you and your community to create tailored activities that promote healthy lifestyles. It includes fun-for-the-whole-family activities such as Futsal and Zumba, and even offers amenities to test blood glucose or cholesterol levels.
Complementing Healthier SG, Saham Kesihatan aims to boost health literacy and encourage physical and mental well-being, all while supporting the formation of community-led health interest groups. Read more about the programme here.
