Walking is amazing. It’s great for both your physical and mental health, and it’s also completely FREE! May is National Walking Month, so discover the magic of walking, and add some extra steps into your day.

19th-23rd May is Walk to School Week. If you work in a school, you might want to think about encouraging your pupils to walk to school where possible. If you’re a parent, you could use the following video as a way to start a discussion with your children about the importance of walking for our general health.

The theme for this year’s Walk to School Week is ‘The Great Space Walk’. For five days, let’s see if we can walk to school and help to improve our physical and mental wellbeing!
