Hello everyone,

What amazing weather we have had. A bit tough sometimes with the heat to exercise so make sure you drink plenty of water and take it a bit easier. We have loved our Nordic Walking recently with this fabulous weather and a new class is now established at Cuerden Valley with the challenge of hills!

Summer Holiday Dates
There will be no classes week beginning Monday 20th August. We start again on Tuesday 28th August after the Bank Holiday.

Big Thank You from the Chorley and Leyland MS Society
I presented the collection box last week. You had raised £90.90. Thank you so much. They are doing some amazing work supporting local people with MS. I know they really helped me when I had my major relapse 2 years ago.

The Indoor Generation
As you know I have been teaching Nordic Walking to get us outdoors more and I am also starting a Saturday morning out door fitness class called Fresh Air Fit. It is so important for our health to have enough fresh clean air, sunlight and nature. The video below really illustrates life has become more and more indoors
