CNTW, in collaboration with Forestry England, are offering staff and their families free outdoor activity sessions in Chopwell Wood to promote staff wellbeing and as part of the ‘A Weight Off Your Mind’ initiative.
In May we have arranged an opportunity for staff to try out Nordic Walking. Nordic walking is a great, low impact workout which burns 20-40% more calories than walking normally. By using specially designed poles you work all the major muscles in the body, without putting unnecessary strain on your joints. This makes it a fantastic way to stay active and burn more calories!
The session will take place on Saturday 7th May 2022 and starts at 10am (lasting approximately one hour). Places can be booked by emailing lucy.brenkley@forestryengland.uk. Priority will be given to staff members, however if there are sufficient spaces available staff may also take family members along to the sessions.
A programme of activities is being planned for the forthcoming months based on the feedback we received from staff, so look out for dates and times and a variety of great activities!
