Be Active

One of the best things we can do for our health and wellbeing is to be active. Physical activity can help us to:

Improve our physical health, boost our immune system, and maintain a healthy weight

Improve our mental wellbeing

Boost our confidence and improve our self esteem

Improve our strength and balance, and reduce our risk of falls

Reduce social isolation and loneliness

Improve attainment and learn new skills

Being active doesn’t have to mean running a marathon – a few small changes can make a huge difference. The key to leading an active lifestyle is finding an activity you love and building it into your routine.
