#Movingis an all-weather activity. Whether it’s -5 degrees or 30 degrees, there are activities available to help you get fit come rain or shine! How do you adapt the type of physical activity you do in the unpredictable British weather? We want to hear your tips!

[#MovingIs @MovingIs_2019]

We all experience barriers to being more active. Sometimes we don't have the time, energy or willpower. Making it social or building it into the tasks we already do every day means it doesn't need to be a burden on us. #MovingIs simply just moving more! https://t.co/4eMEGvhQLC

[#MovingIs @MovingIs_2019]

#MovingIs for all the family! If you’re struggling to fit physical activity around the kids, why not get active with them? Find family friendly activities at https://t.co/iVdSzOAnHM

#MovingIs simple! You don’t need to understand how to use fancy gym equipment or be the next David Beckham. Walking, gardening, taking the stairs all count. This simple guide can get you started https://t.co/9dgEnJrEoy What was your first step towards getting more active?

[#MovingIs @MovingIs_2019]

#MovingIs energising! Our brains get tired before our bodies do. By getting more active, you’re likely to have more energy. Try fitting activity in first thing or reset the brain with a brisk walk at lunchtime. When you’re too tired, what pushes you to get up & go?

#MovingIs about finding an activity you enjoy! It doesn’t have to be the gym or a sports club. There are many ways to move more and have fun whilst doing it. Making it social is a great way to do this. Find group activities near you https://t.co/74UGkZ2VMD

[#MovingIs @MovingIs_2019]

#MovingIs easy to fit into our busy lives. Standing up more, taking the stairs & walking a bit more throughout the day helps. Why not try the One You Active 10 app, which will help get just 10 minutes of brisk walking into your everyday routine? https://t.co/xt9tl3UYOV

[#MovingIs @MovingIs_2019]

Around 2,600 women are diagnosed with cervical cancer in England each year. Around 690 women die from the disease, which is 2 deaths every day. It's estimated that if everyone attended screening regularly, 83% of cases could be prevented. #CervicalScreeningSavesLives

[Department of Health and Social Care @DHSCgovuk]

Two women die every day from cervical cancer in England. Improving cancer detection & diagnosis is a core part of our #NHSLongTermPlan.

This week @PHE_uk launched a new campaign to promote cervical screening: #CervicalScreeningSavesLives

with an attached needle and sheath containing latex which is not suitable for those with anaphylactic reactions to latex, alternatives should be available - do get in touch for more info

This is an important Public Health message also, look after yourself this winter, especially if you are vulnerable and have a long term condition.

Katie was diagnosed with diabetes 17 years ago. She knows that if she became ill with the flu, having diabetes would put her at greater risk from more serious complications. That's why she makes sure she has the #fluvaccine every year. Have you had yours yet? #HelpUsHelpYou
