This May is National Walking Month‚ a great opportunity to take to the streets on foot. To make the most of this‚ the University has signed up to the national Walk to Work Week (9–13 May)‚ run by the charity Living Streets.
Walk to Work Week is about more than just walking to work‚ so even if you can’t walk all or part of the way to or from work you can still get involved. There will be lots of challenges to take part in during the Week‚ from lunchtime walks‚ to walking meetings‚ and uploading photos from your walks.
We will be competing against organisations across the country to see who gets the most people walking and who walks the furthest.
To find out more and register to take part, visit www.mylivingstreets.org.uk and join our workplace group, which is under the name “University of Southampton”.
Walk to Work Week is on 9-13 May, so get it in your diaries and start thinking of ways that you could walk more during the Week.
