Keeping healthy!
Research also suggests that walking is possibly the single most effective and accessible form of physical activity. Health professionals now recommend that everyone should aim to do 30 minutes of moderate exercise (such as walking) at least five times a week.
Check out the NHS Active 10 walking campaign which aims to get more people walking. Their free Active 10 app takes away the guesswork – it shows how much brisk walking you are doing and how you can do more. It’s easy to use and helps you set your goals for the day.
You can also find a range of short walks in East Sussex on the East Sussex Health Walks web page, the Brighton and Hove City Council Sport and Activity web pages, as well as guidance on walking for health on the NHS choices web pages.
