The purpose of the centre is the pursuit of optimal health and wellness as an active, lifelong process of becoming aware of choices and making of decisions towards a more balanced and fulfilling life, allowing the UFS community to thrive. It endeavours to be a respected centre of excellence, both nationally and internationally.
