Better Health Walks aren't just about the walking!

Whilst walking is a great way to improve your physical and mental wellbeing, the team like to focus on other activities after the walk too.

From seated strength exercises and football bowling, to balancing and stretching, there's plenty of opportunities to focus on other areas of your health.

If there is something you'd like to improve, speak to one of the team and they will help you.

The Big Bike Recycle Scheme makes a real difference in our community🚴‍♂️

Ryan first got a bike in April 2025 and has been using it extensively ever since, racking up 20+ miles a week mainly commuting to and from work.

This has helped him save money every month, improve his fitness and get outdoors more!

To learn more about the scheme, donating and applying for a bike, visit https://shorturl.at/mR6az.
