Active Together - Let's Get Moving

Movember is more than moustaches - it’s about making real change in men’s health. Physical activity is one of the most powerful tools we have.

Let’s help our communities move more, feel better, and live longer ♥️

Cold weather can make us want to hibernate—but movement is the best way to beat the winter blues 🥶

Whether it’s an active game with friends, a quick jog around your area or a home workout, every bit counts! ✨

Movement = energy, warmth and a better mood. Let’s keep moving this November!

Introducing, Adam! 👋

After going through a health scare, Adam turned his life around by beginning to eat a healthy diet and going on regular walks.

Now, Adam and his wife enjoy 5-mile journeys together, which was deemed “unimaginable” for Adam not too long ago 🚶‍♂️💪

Let’s Get Moving Ben is showing us how physical activity isn’t just about fitness - it’s
about friendship too 🚴‍♂️

In his latest blog, Ben shares how his cycling group combines movement with meaningful social time, often ending their rides with a well-earned pub visit. He even rings ahead to make sure there’s space for everyone - because staying active is better when shared with others.

Whether it’s cycling, walking, or joining a local class, being active can help you meet new people, build friendships, and boost your mental wellbeing ♥️
