RED (Rise Every Day) January is designed to support people through the month of January – and challenge the nature of traditional resolutions.
It encourages people to set themselves a realistic movement goal for every day of the month – a goal that works for them and their lifestyle, and that they have a real chance of completing and then continuing throughout the year.
RED also represents a supportive community, with people across the UK coming together to empower each other, to help people overcome any lower mood and energy they may be experiencing, or to spread the word about the benefits of daily activity.
Councillor Jasbir Jaspal, the City of Wolverhampton Council's Cabinet Member for Adults and Wellbeing, said: “For RED January, we are aiming to help improve physical activity through our WV Active leisure centres, encouraging people to set themselves achievable goals which they can complete with us at WV Active.
“WV Active offers the best value memberships around, and we’re hoping that more and more people will join us in January to try out new activities and improve their health and wellbeing.”
