Cities of London and Westminster MP Nickie Aiken is encouraging people to stay healthy and improve their mood by supporting a new national campaign inspiring people to do exercise during the coronavirus (COVID19) outbreak.
With people mostly confined to their own home following the latest government advice, Sport England’s ‘Join the Movement’ campaign will give people fun and creative ideas on how to get active at home and encourage them to share their own experiences and join the movement online using the hashtag #StayInWorkOut.
The campaign will have its own online hub to give access to a range of home workout options – including existing free exercise content and advice from organisations such as the NHS, and workouts from popular fitness brands and influencers many of whom are offering free content and extended trials to help people get easy access to home exercise.
The campaign will also encourage people to go outside close to where they live for one session of exercise a day, alone or with their household, as the Prime Minister set out earlier this week, whether that’s simply for a walk, a jog or a cycle.
On the launch of the campaign Cities of London and Westminster MP Nickie Aiken commented, “I’m proud to support Sport England’s Join the Movement campaign. Remaining active as active as possible within the Government guidelines help manage stress and anxiety and maintain physical health. Anyone can get involved with the campaign to access a range of home workout resources. I would encourage everyone to do so.”
