Active Blaby Active Blaby is your local service to help people become more active. We work hard to give people the best choices in local activities to keep them healthy.

Active Blaby helps people increase their activity in a number of ways. We;

- have a website that uses a questionnaire to best understand your behaviour towards activity and attempt to overcome the barriers you face and use your strengths to get more active

- deliver classes for people with limited mobility and health conditions that are run by activity specialists

- support existing physical activity instructors and sports clubs to be more accessible to everyone by promoting and funding development courses, increasing participation, supporting volunteers and communicate funding opportunities

- work with partners to add activity to their services and use their expertise to enhance our programmes, such as mental health and inclusion

- collect the thought and feelings of our communities to help shape our services to best help you

🌿 Discover the benefits of Nordic walking 🌿

There’s plenty of evidence supporting physical activity as part of cancer care, but we know that getting active can sometimes feel difficult. Nordic walking uses specially designed poles to support posture and balance, making outdoor activity feel safer and more achievable for many people affected by cancer. 🚶‍♀️🚶‍♂️

Nordic walking may help to build muscle strength, reduce pain and support better sleep—all while enjoying fresh air and the company of others. Learning the correct technique with a qualified instructor can help you get the most from every walk. 💚

Ministry of Nordic Walks offers a range of low-cost community walks each week, helping more people enjoy the physical, mental and social benefits of getting outdoors together. 🌳🤝

A change to the skin, such as puckering or dimpling
A change in the colour of the breast – the breast may look darker, red or inflamed
A ni**le change, for example it has become pulled in (inverted)
Rash or crusting around the ni**le
Unusual liquid (discharge) from either ni**le
Changes in size or shape of the breast

This year's theme “Lived experiences heard: real voices, real change”, reminds us that conversations about mental health can make a huge difference. When we listen to people's experiences we build understanding, reduce stigma and help create positive change.

Sometimes the best conversations happen side by side. Joining a local health walk is a simple way to get moving, enjoy the outdoors, connect with others and support your wellbeing.

Why not take a step towards better mental health today and discover the range of Active Blaby Health Walks available across Blaby, Oadby and Wigston.
