Ministry of Nordic Walks Community Group is working with B.O.W.S. Mental Health Forum to help provide and promote activities for gaining and maintaining better mental health in the upcoming Mental Health Awareness Week (May 13th - 20th 2019). We hope to be running a FREE talk and taster session at Glenhills Community Library on Monday 13th May at 11 am (watch this space) aimed primarily for people with anxiety issues. This session will be to promote the benefits of exercise such as Nordic walking for improving and maintaining good mental health as well as a discussion about the barriers to entry and how we can make Nordic walking more accessible to those with mental health issues. The session will allow those taking part the opportunity to try Nordic walking in the nearby nature reserve with a trained Nordic walking instructor. On Friday morning, 17th May, Penny will be delivering some Nordic walking taster sessions at Trinity Methodist church in Oadby along with other activity instructors promoting the benefits to mental health that exercise can bring. For any further information or to book your place on either of these activities please contact Penny via email or on 07502 576764.
