With the cold winter mornings about to go away and the sun rising earlier in the morning, (and before it gets too hot), it’s a good time to have some motivation to get up and exercise in the morning! It’s also an IDEAL time to kick start a regular routine. This is good for EVERYONE- Parents/ carers and Kids!!

Any exercise you can do is beneficial for you. Walking, swimming, running, skipping, dancing, team sports – anything that you enjoy and will keep doing.

Benefits include –

• It can make you feel happier.
• It’s good for your muscles and bones.
• Increases your energy levels.
• Reduces your chances of long term conditions.
• It helps your brain and memory.
• It helps with relaxation and sleep.

Anything you do is going to be a start - 5 minutes and ideally building up to 30 minutes a day. Then start to get the intensity up (that means getting huffy and puffy and getting your heart rate up).

If adults and children are after doing something together – there is a program “Go4Fun Online” and it’s free!

Go4Fun Online runs over 10 weeks and includes:

• Weekly online activity sessions
• Weekly phone coaching with a health professional
• Resources and prizes
• Our online community where you can chat to other families in the program
• Email and text message support
