Against a backdrop of tight public finances, those involved in sport – local authorities, clubs, federations, associations – are increasingly seeking to diversify their sources of funding. Public subsidies remain the dominant pillar, but they are no longer always sufficient, and it takes a long time to obtain them. Corporate philanthropy and endowment funds are

The installation of free-access fitness areas in municipal parks has become increasingly popular in recent years, as demand for outdoor sporting activities has grown. But behind the enthusiasm of local residents lies a sensitive question for elected representatives and technical departments: what happens in the event of an accident? Who is liable, on what grounds,

Installing a fitness or street workout area in a public park has become a recurring project for French local authorities. Popular with local residents, these facilities meet a growing demand for free, open-air sports activities. However, equipping an urban park is not something that can be improvised: the choice of equipment, the available surface area,

Free-access fitness areas have proliferated in French public parks, but all too often they remain inaccessible to people with disabilities. Yet outdoor physical activity is precisely one of the most valuable levers for the health, autonomy and well-being of these groups.

After the age of 60, regular physical activity is no longer simply a question of aesthetics or performance: it becomes a genuine act of preventive health care. Maintaining muscle mass, preventing falls, cardiovascular health, quality of sleep, combating depression and preserving autonomy: the benefits of adapted exercise are now widely documented.

For many practitioners, the confusion is total: is it the same sport? Why do some gyms call it CrossFit and others

Falls are the most feared event in nursing homes, and with good reason: they are the leading cause of hospitalization among dependent elderly people, with often serious consequences (femoral neck fractures, loss of mobility, post-fall syndrome). Nearly one resident in two suffers at least one fall a year. Faced with this situation, medical-social establishments are

Purchasers’ expectations in terms of well-being and sport have changed radically over the last ten years. Whereas, until recently, a gym at the foot of a building was part of the ultra-premium segment, it is now a standard feature in the mid-range and high-end segments, and a powerful selling point in developments of over 50
