Here at Mind BLMK, we know the importance of keeping healthy and active and the positive benefits this can have on our mental health - this January we're encouraging you to do 'A mile a day for Mind BLMK'!

Walk, run, swim or cycle a mile every day in January to help raise vital funds and awareness for positive mental health.

Spending time in green space or bringing nature into your everyday life can benefit both your mental and physical wellbeing. For example, exercising outdoors can have lots of positive effects. It can:

> Improve your mood
> Reduce feelings of stress or anger
> Help you take time out and feel more relaxed
> Improve your physical health
> Improve your confidence and self-esteem
> Help you be more active
> Help you make new connections
> Provide peer support

It is entirely free to take part and if you raise £50 or more, you'll also get a Mind BLMK sports t-shirt!

If you're interested in joining us for 'A Mile a Day for Mind BLMK' this January or would like further information, then please take a look at our website (www.mind-blmk.org.uk/support-us/mile-a-day/) or email [email protected]
