Getting Active in<br />
Cranbrook and<br />
Sissinghurst<br />
You may be<br />
surprised about<br />
the wide variety<br />
of opportunities<br />
available to you<br />
locally, but as the area’s Everyday<br />
Active Champion, I have had the<br />
pleasure of meeting many of the<br />
people who run these clubs and<br />
classes. <strong>The</strong> enthusiasm of the<br />
instructors and coaches makes<br />
me feel really positive about the<br />
future health and happiness of<br />
our community.<br />
Although most of my focus<br />
remains on finding opportunities<br />
for people who are not currently<br />
as active as they would like to<br />
be – such as Wellbeing Walks<br />
– I have also been chairing a<br />
forum for sports clubs, in order<br />
to ensure we can offer the best<br />
service possible to our residents.<br />
Now that spring is here, it’s a<br />
great time to start thinking about<br />
getting out to try a new activity<br />
or sport, writes Mark Lawrence<br />
Another big part of my role<br />
is promoting the available<br />
activities through the Tunbridge<br />
Wells page of the Everyday<br />
Active website, which also<br />
hosts a wealth of advice for<br />
anyone looking to make a<br />
key lifestyle change: www.<br />
everydayactivekent.org.uk/<br />
communities/tunbridge-wells<br />
However, if you feel you need<br />
more support in setting goals for<br />
a healthier lifestyle, one of my<br />
colleagues in the One You service<br />
will be waiting to take your call.<br />
<strong>The</strong> service offers help on things<br />
such as weight loss, getting more<br />
active, drinking less and stopping<br />
smoking, and we are hoping to<br />
re-open the Cranbrook clinic<br />
soon.<br />
