A HEALTHY FUTURE FOR TELFORD AND WREKIN

It’s a new year and a new you – signing up to the Healthy Telford pledge could be a great way to commit to being healthier and happy in 2025. The Healthy Telford pledge is an empowering 12 week email programme designed to enhance wellbeing and encourage people to adopt healthier lifestyles, all while fostering a sense of unity by making this change for a reason. Finding motivation can be hard but getting healthier is much easier when you have a reason to do it! The pledge encompasses a wide range of support, including how to get more active, eating more nutritious food, enhancing emotional wellbeing and quitting smoking, all aimed at making health accessible and engaging. Who will you Do It For?

Take the pledge today

Jorden, who has already embraced the pledge, shared her enthusiasm: “I quit smoking for my son. “I wanted to be able to run around and play with him without being out of breath. I didn’t want to be paranoid that I smelt of smoke and therefore that my child did, even though I never smoked around him. “Now we can play together outside, and the money I’ve saved will be going towards a trip to Disney!” So who will you do for it?

Whether its for your dog, your children, or your future self, signing up to the Healthy Telford pledge is a promise to becoming a healthier you.

“The dedication of people who have already taken the pledge is truly inspiring, and the positive changes they are experiencing in their lives are a testament to what can be achieved. “I’ve committed to my pledge too – I’m aiming to complete 500,000 steps for Diabetes UK. “It’s a great way to get myself outside and active, meet new people and support people like my dad who have been impacted by diabetes.”
