It's Wednesday. It's hump day. It's dark. It's cold.
But do you know what can turn your day around? A walk.
You can walk with music, with silence, alone, with someone and for no reason at all.
Wrap up and head out.
A walk can change your mood, your energy and your day.

One of the best ways to get to know someone is to go on a walk with them.
Your body relaxes, your mind opens up and conversation starts flowing.
So our questions to you are:
👣 Who have you been on a walk with?
👣 Who should you go on a walk with?
Your body relaxes, your mind opens up and conversation starts flowing.

Did you know... We use both terms, walking and wheeling, together as it’s more inclusive.
Both words, walking and wheeling, represent the action of moving at a pedestrian’s pace, whether or not someone is unaided or using any kind of wheeled mobility aid.

This week, skip the car for one short trip and walk or wheel instead. Jump in a puddle and maybe spot a rainbow or two. Don't let the rain stop you.

It helps address health inequalities, fight social isolation and loneliness, and tackle the nature-climate emergency.
