National Walking Month - May 2024!
Did you know that May is National Walking Month? So why not help celebrate by joining one, or more, of the fantastic walks planned across Angus.
The benefits of activity on both mental and physical health are well documented. Whether it’s getting a breath of fresh air, clearing the mind, or just needing a change of scene – it’s a great thing to be able to get up and do if you’re able to. Those extra steps help you build stamina, heart health and burn calories.
