A big thank you to Pam, Sue, Lisa, Ian, Emma, Gill, Lindsay and Sharon for helping us support Parkinson's UK by providing Marshalls for their Staffordshire Charity walk on Saturday at Birches Valley Cannock Chase. The weather tried to behave but we did have the odd shower. There were 228 participants and hopefully plenty of money was raised for their Nurse appeal.

Menopause Support Walks on Cannock Chase 💚

Menopause Support Walks on Cannock Chase 💚

🌿 Menopause Support Walks on Cannock Chase 🌿
Join us this June for two supportive CBT therapy for menopause sessions with CBT therapist Jodie from atala, with the walk led by Sharon from Walx on The Chase.

📍 Cannock Chase
🗓 Saturday 13th June & Saturday 20th June
⏰ 9:00 a.m. – 10:00 a.m.
💷 Pilot project reduced rate: £10 per session
👥 Limited to 12 places per walk

Each session will explore a different aspect of menopause:
✨ 13th June – Mental health symptoms
✨ 20th June – Physical health symptoms

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is NICE-recommended for supporting menopause symptoms and can help women manage anxiety, low mood, stress, overwhelm, sleep difficulties, hot flushes, confidence changes and more. CBT offers practical tools and coping strategies to better understand and manage the emotional and physical changes that can happen during menopause.

These sessions combine the benefits of CBT with gentle walking in nature, alongside the wellbeing boost that comes from movement, fresh air and connecting with others. Research shows that walking, social connection and spending time outdoors can all positively support menopause symptoms, helping to reduce stress, improve mood, increase energy levels, support sleep and build confidence and resilience.

WALX on The Chase is part of the national WALX group and promote the use of walking with poles to encourage an all over body workout through Total Body Walking, based on Nordic Walking. There will also be an opportunity to try walking with poles. Total Body Walking can help improve posture, mobility, strength, and fitness while reducing pressure on joints. No previous experience is needed, and the walk will be gentle and supportive for all abilities.

If you would like to join us, or if you have any questions, please email: [email protected]

For further details please see https://atala.org.uk/ and https://walx.co.uk/groups/walx-on-the-chase/

Come and join us for a chance to stretch your legs around Abbots Bromley, whether you are a seasoned walker or just wanting to get outside and have some fresh air and a natter.

⭐️ PERSONAL POST ⭐️

Running a business looks empowering from the outside — freedom, control, success.
But behind the scenes? It can feel overwhelming.

Long hours. Constant decisions. Financial pressure. The weight of responsibility.

Many business owners carry it all quietly:
• Worrying about cash flow
• Feeling isolated at the top
• Struggling to switch off
• Wondering if they’re doing enough

That’s why this Mental Health Awareness Week, Sporting PB are giving you the opportunity to pause, connect, and take a step forward — together.

🚶‍♂️ Step Together in Abbots Bromley
In partnership with Walx on the Chase
📅 Friday 15th May
🕙 10:00 AM
📍 Meeting Point: Abbots Bromley Sports Ground

Join us for a relaxing walk around Abbots Bromley, enjoy a chat, and a cuppa ☕

This year’s theme is Action — and sometimes the simplest step is just getting out, moving, and talking.

Come along, get moving, and join the conversation.

Today’s Coffee and Cake ended up being being coffee and bacon cob and what super cobs they were at Canalside Farm. We had sunshine and found some bluebells still in all of their glory. This afternoon as we walked to wellness we were treated to the rhododendrons near the old hospital.
