Join the Step Count Challenge this spring and step into a healthier workplace. Walking more can energise you and make you feel fresh and alert. You’ll feel healthier too.
Whether it’s walking to work, going for a lunchtime stroll or simply using the stairs rather than the lift, we just want people to enjoy the benefits of an active lifestyle.
Here’s the lowdown:
- The challenge starts on Monday 22nd January and lasts for 4 weeks
- Enter as a team of 5 people
- Create a user account at the Step Count Challenge website where you can record your daily steps, get personal step goals, share comments with your team and track your team’s progress on our leaderboards
- If you need a way of counting your steps, we can provide you with a pedometer – just let us know at WalkAtWork@pathsforall.org.uk
- You can also use your own pedometer, activity tracker or favourite app
- There will be regular updates, challenges and prizes throughout to keep you and your team motivated
To register your team email WalkAtWork@pathsforall.org.uk and we’ll let you know how you can sign up.
