Physical Activity
Why should I be more active?
To Live Life Well we need to incorporate more physical activity into our lives.
There are numerous health benefits to be gained by being active, including reducing the risk of heart disease, some cancers, diabetes and osteoperosis.
Being active can help lower blood pressure and cholesterol. Regular activity also makes you feel good and improves your mental health.
Not only does being active mean you can Live Life Well, but the environment also benefits. If we all walked and cycled more, our neighbourhoods would be cleaner because there would be fewer cars on the road and safer because more people would be out and about.
Being active is also a great way to meet people and make new friends while participating in active leisure activities.
