Walk to School Week 18 to 22 May, is part of the month’s activities and its aim is to encourage parents to send children to school on foot, rather than take them in the car or let them use pubic transport. The movement was started in 1995 with only the five participating schools and now two decades later, more than one million children take part.

In the morning, getting off the bus a stop early or parking a few streets away is a good way to add more steps to the daily total.

Walk home with your workmates and chat away about everything under the sun but work!
