The “Healthier Me” Project
The project funded under the UKSPF Community Grant is divided into three: The monthly “Walk and Talk” group, the subsided gym memberships and subsided fruits and vegetables shopping. The aim of the project is to address health disparities within the local community. Please scroll down for more information on the project.
WALK & TALK GROUP
Taking part in a walking group can help you become more physically active, which may be beneficial to your overall health.
Join the monthly “Walk and Talk” group not only as a form of exercise but an opportunity to socialise with like minded people.
Some of the benefits of walking includes improvement in mood, heart health, cognitive functioning, immune system function, increase energy, and strengthens muscles and bones. Taking part in a walking group can help you become more physically active, which may be beneficial to your overall health as stated earlier.
Walking with other people provides a great opportunity for socializing, self-confidence to take on new challenges and meeting new people. Exercise has been linked to reducing stress levels, and a walking group can provide a social, supportive environment to do this.
Joining a walking group helps to build a sense of community, as you share stories and make connections with others that share similar interests and goals.
Let’s meet for Walk & Talk! We will meet at the Car Park, Wellbeck Estate, Worksop, S80 3LL.
