Staying active
People who stay active are more likely to continue with their normal
lives for longer. They are more likely to be able to keep working, engaging
and enjoying, without having to depend on others.
Inactivity causes
disability and millions of deaths around the world every year. It can lead
to heart disease, stroke, diabetes and cancer.
You’re never too
young or too old to stay active – just half an hour of moderate exercise
(like walking fast) every day can make a real difference.
If you
want to keep healthy, keep moving – all through your life.
If you
have problems that you think might prevent you exercising, ask a physiotherapist
for help, they are the qualified experts in movement and exercise.
Why don’t you encourage your colleagues, family and friends to keep
active? Print out the attached
poster here and put it up somewhere for everyone to see!
