We can say goodbye to January for another year, as we edge closer to the clearer nights and spring!

If increasing your physical activity was on your New Year's Resolution agenda, we hope you're reaping the benefits, both physically and mentally.

Any amount of physical activity is better than doing none at all. And if you are already physically active, increasing the amount you do can also benefit your health.

Being physically active can help to: 

• improve your physical health; 
• boost your mental health;
• maintain a healthy weight;
• manage stress.

Physical activity has also been shown to reduce the risk of chronic illnesses, such as:

• heart disease;
• some cancers; 
• type 2 diabetes.

By becoming more active, you are also playing your part in protecting our environment. Walking more will reduce your carbon footprint and benefit us all for generations to come. Encouraging others to join you will also help.
