What a lovely sunny, crisp morning to be out and about on the fortnightly health walk around St.Thomas.

A small group of us met at St Thomas Medical Group practice on Cowick Street and walked a short loop around Cowick Barton Fields and surrounding areas. It was great to meet new people, have a chat and explore St.Thomas on foot.

Come along for friendly walks and chats every 2nd and 4th Wednesday of the month, meeting at St.Thomas Medical Practice at 10:30am.

For Women across Exeter! 👇

City Sisters is a brand-new, physical activity programme designed to inspire women in Exeter.
We want to engage and energise participants across the city by offering a varied programme of activities for women of all ages, fitness levels, cultures, and abilities.

We’ve linked with community groups, individuals, organisations and local facilities that showcase the best of what’s available.

We’re seeking allies and ambassadors to support participants and highlight the opportunities that exist so that more women feel able to be physically active and to feel great.

We lift the curfew, tackle inequalities, showcase community spirit, lead by example, listen with intent, break down barriers and bridge the gap where opportunities are lacking.

This pilot program is not just designed to deliver activities but to listen and learn specifically what women want in the city, in their community and on their doorstep.

We have 200 places available on this pilot programme of activities and want to engage women who really need support and inspiration to get moving.

If you’re interested in the programme, please get in touch by completing this google form https://forms.gle/GLo5yJJ837UK5T6q9 or emailing hello@liveandmove.co.uk.

You’ll then receive the full schedule of activities that you can book onto and take part in throughout January and February.

We’re not hanging around.
We’re not standing on the sidelines.
We’re not waiting for permission.

Why don’t you join us?
