New Wellbeing Walkabout resources to support Walk to School Week 16^th – 20^th May 2022

The Active Travel Team are delighted that over 40 schools from across the county have requested resources, to be distributed to almost 6000 children!

The activity sheet is a simple, folded leaflet and has been designed around the 5 Ways to Wellbeing with a focus on getting children to think about how they feel on their active journeys. There are activities to encourage them to engage with their surroundings, and some suggestions to help make their experiences more fulfilling. The activities are not specific to Walk to School Week and can be used any time.

The Active Travel Team have several other programmes and initiatives throughout the year to promote walking and wheeling to school including:

• A resource pack to set up and promote a 5-minute walking bubble
• Guidance and resources to establish a park & stride scheme
• Guidance and resources to establish a walking bus
• Support to create a school travel plan via the Modeshift STARS scheme
• Bikeability cycle training

 Please don’t hesitate to get in touch if you would like to find out more.

We are also supporting Cycling UK’s Bike Week (6^th -12^th June 2022) and Clean Air Day (16^th June 2022) and information on how schools can get involved will be available soon.
