May is National Walking Month

May is National Walking Month, an annual reminder of the benefits of walking and spending time outdoors.
As always, we also include people who use wheelchairs or other mobility aids.
Walking is proven to be good for our minds, our bodies and the environment. Taking a brisk walk for just 30 minutes a day, at least 5 days per week, can reduce stress and blood pressure, improve sleep, boost your mood and help you manage your weight.
Walking is one of the easiest ways to improve our health and stay connected to our community, helping us feel less lonely and isolated.
Living Streets have put together 20 tips to help you fit 20 minutes of walking into your day. From inviting friends for a walk to taking a post-work stroll, how many #Try20 tips can you do during National Walking Month and beyond?
