Let's Create a Movement for Movement!
'A Movement for Movement' is the physical activity strategy for BCP and Dorset.
Our aim is to support everyone to move a little more every day, in ways that work for them while tailoring that support towards those who can benefit most from moving more.
Being active isn't just about going to the gym, running for miles, or bending into the most flexible of yoga poses. It could be dancing around the kitchen, walking the dog or tending to the garden.
It's up to you how you get active, but the more fun you have, and the easier it is to fit into your routine, the better. Thirty minutes of activity each day is a great target to aim for, but it doesn't have to be all in one go. Every minute of activity counts!
In the long run, moving more also helps protect against serious illnesses like cancer, heart disease and stroke. But there are plenty of short-term benefits too, like improving sleep, boosting concentration, and relieving stress.
Whether you want to move more at home, at work or in your community, no matter your age or ability, we are here to help you find ways of moving that work for you.
