Feet First encourages families to think about how they travel to school, with the aim being to swap at least one car journey for a more active mode of travel. Whether that’s walking, using a mobility aid or wheelchair, cycling, or scooting is up to you. https://t.co/XWaLqQnkdW

Walking, wheeling or cycling on the school run is fun and free way of boosting your active minutes and exploring your neighbourhood. It can also improve the mood of children arriving to school refreshed, alert and ready to learn. Start your day on a win!🏅
Research tells us that being active boosts children's mental health, their learning and behaviour. 😄 Here's 10 free and fun activities for kids to get active from @YouthSportTrust: https://t.co/waCK2x8Mra

Active travel isn't just good for the environment, it's beneficial to our health and economy too. It might not seem like switching your short car trips to a walk or cycle makes much of a difference, but small changes all add up. 🙌
