NASP Webinar: RED January - Moving for change
Hear about RED January and together let's make real changes, not new year resolutions. RED January is a nationwide public health movement that empowers us all to overcome barriers that currently lead to higher inactivity and lower wellbeing in the winter.  The idea is to sign up to RED January for free as an individual or team, set a personal movement challenge for the month that works for you and your lifestyle, and enjoy support from the RED community every step, splash and pedal of the way!  The National Academy for Social Prescribing is excited to be teaming up with RED January, to encourage health workers – who work tirelessly throughout winter to keep us all healthy – to sign up to RED January to help boost their own wellbeing this winter. With activities like desk Pilates and tips to embrace active travel, there are ways for even the busiest amongst us to take part. For interested doctors, link workers, nurses and other healthcare professionals, please sign up for the webinar hosted by NASP at 12pm on 14th December.
