Moving Forces reopens select outdoor sessions after loosening of government restrictions.
After shutting all sessions down in March and starting our fully digital content, we have been thoroughly enjoying seeing veterans throughout the week and virtually staying active! With the recent loosening of restrictions, we are thrilled to announce a reopening of select outdoor Moving Forces sessions. These will all keep within guidelines and each deliverer has completed and arranged full safety responses to be able to offer these sessions. The sessions opening will include archery held at the Fairfield School for Girls, rock climbing at Hobson Moor, along with some watersports and walking groups!
These sessions will remain open until further notice or a tightening of restrictions. We hope to see you at the sessions soon!
By understanding cultural norms, feelings of belonging, and how safe people feel in a space, we can make physical activity more inclusive for everyone.
As the NHS makes the shift from ‘hospital to community’, we must ensure that physical activity is embedded at the heart of community-centred care, says Sarah Price, Director of Public Health at NHS England.
This ‘Walk Your Dog’ Month, Claire Marshall (Strategic Lead for Active Adults at GM Moving) shares how daily dog walks can transform wellbeing and boost community connection.
