THE nights are drawing in and temperatures are cooling off, but Somerset’s great outdoors is still open and getting your daily dose of fresh air during autumn is more important than ever.
To help encourage people to stay active and keep moving in October, the Get Outside in Somerset project is launching the Active Autumn Challenge. The challenge encourages participants to mix up their daily local exercise with a range of different ideas to help them have fun and stay healthy.
Time spent moving outside can help boost your mood, sharpen your focus, reduce stress, and improve sleep. Anyone who fancies having a go can download the Active Autumn Challenge calendar here: Full Pack – Active Autumn getoutsideinsomerset.co.uk. Ideas include something for all ages and levels of fitness, from paddleboarding to blackberry picking, to having a ‘leaf confetti’ photoshoot.
Visit www. GetOutsideIn Somerset.co.uk for tips, inspiration and guidance on how and where to get active outdoors. The website includes regularly updated information about activities in Somerset, and you can narrow down your search by location or the type of activity you are interested in. From yoga in the park, fishing and geocaching to cycling, climbing and forest bathing, there is something for everyone.
