💪Regular physical activity supports both your physical and mental health, helps reduce the risk of falls, and can help with recovery if you do get ill.

⛄️To find out more about keeping active during the colder months, see the link in the post below 👇 or check out the Get Active page of the Better Health North Somerset website: https://www.betterhealthns.co.uk/get-active

Regular physical activity supports both your physical and mental health, helps reduce the risk of falls, and can be beneficial for recovery if you do get ill.

During the colder months, it’s easy to spend more time indoors, but even a short walk outdoors can make a big difference! Before heading out, make sure conditions are safe and paths aren’t icy ❄️

Yesterday in our Mind, Body & Bump course we discovered the different nutrients which are important for both mum and growing baby - eating a variety of food groups is the best way to do this.

If you're struggling to get the nutrients in due to sickness, please don't worry - speak to your Midwife for support.

Want to join Mind, Body & Bump? New course starting January 2026, find out more via: https://fb.me/e/3L4tU4upx

🌟 Small Steps, Big Wins! 🌟
When Jon first joined us, getting active felt really tough: Arthritis, back pain, and limited mobility meant even walking a short distance was a challenge. Most days, he stayed inside his flat, and felt a 'bit down' with his situation...
But over 12 weeks, things started to change. We worked together on chair-based strengthening exercises, pacing strategies, and added his favourite music to make movement more enjoyable.
Fast forward to today: Jon is walking further, leaving the flat regularly, and volunteering! That’s not just physical progress—it’s improved wellbeing and less time spent alone.💪
👉 If pain, mobility issues, or confidence are holding you back, don’t wait. Our team is here to help you find YOUR way to move more and feel better. Message us today or click the link to get started!
✨ Every step counts. Your journey can start now 👣
