Activity Tracker - Everyday Active Challenge 2024

Description

New Year, New Challenge!

Jump into January with our new Everyday Active Challenge. Keeping active is not only good for our physical health but it's especially important during the winter months to help improve our mental wellbeing. Whether it's a walk to the shops, a jog around the block, a spot of gardening, a kickabout in the park, cycling to/from work, an online exercise class, a swim in your local pool - anything goes! The more you move, the more activity points you'll earn.

To take part, all you have to do is sign up to Kent's free Activity Tracker and start logging your everyday activities from 1 January 2024 - 31 January 2024.

To help get you started, why not visit Everyday Active and explore a wide range of activities for all fitness levels and abilities, read inspiring stories and discover what's going on in your local communities. You can also save any searches on the website and make a personal plan for the week. Check out Everyday Active and start moving more in your everyday life.

As an added incentive and to keep us all going, there is an overall Challenge Target of 1 MILLION activity points in January. Every activity you log and every point you earn, will go towards this overall target so we're all in this together!

You will also be entered into the Challenge Prize Draw so everyone is in with a chance of being rewarded for their efforts. Good Luck!
