National Walking Month – May
National Walking month is an annual event that takes place in the UK every May. The event promotes walking as a free, accessible activity to get people outdoors, socialising and reaping the health benefits that walking can offer.
Walking more frequently and completing active travel is not only good for us, but also improves the health of our planet. So whether you are walking or wheeling, the challenge is waiting for you.

Get Outside and Notice the Beauty in Nature
On Positive News, the forestry Commission has developed self-led woodland wellbeing trails to encourage people to slow down and engage with nature.
The idea is to pause, notice and reflect on your relationship with nature.
Another way to notice the beauty in nature is to use all your senses:
See – the colours and the beauty
Hear – bird song or the sound of a gentle breeze
Smell – the flowers or freshly cut grass
Touch – tree bark or cool stream water
Taste – unless you are an expert on what is safe to eat, then maybe just enjoying a homemade picnic with a friend
