Sian Price, of the Countryside Management Service, outlines six ways we can all get more from our wilder spaces during the Hertfordshire Year of Physical Activity
THE inaugural Hertfordshire Year of Physical Activity aims to put Herts on the map as the UK’s most active county. Throughout 2018, the campaign will support people to exercise more, pick up an old hobby again or enjoy something new.
Jane Parker, HYPA co-ordinator, outlined how it could bring people together across the community: ‘We would encourage everyone to get involved in this fantastic opportunity and would love to hear from anyone interested in running an activity during one of the 12 themed months.’
There are so many benefits to stepping up your rate of activity – you feel fitter and stronger, you have more energy to exercise and you’ll be rewarded by a good night’s sleep at the end of it. A truism is to feel great you should move more, which is why Countryside Management Service (CMS) has compiled an array of opportunities to help us all get more active in 2018 and enjoy the great outdoors.
