Our Mission
Goal
Social wellness for the people. Social wellness is the ability to build and maintain healthy, meaningful relationships and a sense of belonging within a community.
Active Vancouver is our response to the challenges of modern life — the lingering effects of the pandemic, the isolation of work-from-home routines, the growing mental health crisis, and the increasing demands of fast-paced urban living. We recognize that now, more than ever, people are seeking meaningful ways to reconnect with themselves, their communities, and the world around them.
Why are we building this
Our response to the effects of the pandemic, the isolation of work-from-home routines, and the growing mental health crisis.
We know that staying active isn’t just about fitness — it’s about finding joy in movement, embracing the beauty of the outdoors, trying new experiences, and forging connections with others. Whether you’re craving the thrill of scenic hiking trails, the fun of family-friendly outings, the energy of fitness classes, the excitement of local events, or the tranquillity of peaceful spots to relax and recharge, Active Vancouver is here to make those moments accessible and inspiring.
Our platform is designed to empower you to find activities and events that align with your mood, energy level, and lifestyle. Whether you’re feeling adventurous, social, creative, or calm, our mood-based search helps you discover experiences that feel just right — right here in your Metro Vancouver community. By fostering a culture of movement and connection, we aim to combat the disconnection and stress of modern life, helping you live more fully in every moment.
How it all started in 2020
It started as a simple list on my phone—just ideas of things I wanted to try. Some came from friends, others from coworkers, and a few from scrolling through social media. I found myself checking it almost every week, whenever I was wondering how to keep the kids—and myself—active and entertained.
Over time, that list became the foundation for what is now Active Vancouver.
