Are You up to the Challenge?
After a successful fi rst year, the Workplace Challenge will be launched again in January 2015 to help local workplaces, organisations and businesses get fi t, active and healthy. Last year, the Workplace Challenge was launched in January across 29 counties in England. Northamptonshire saw over 600 individuals from over 130 different workplaces take part.
Individuals and workplaces competed in the Activity Log - a free 8 week online challenge, whereby participants can log their levels of sport, physical activity and active travel to compete with other workplaces, colleagues and friends. Any activity logged generates points which contribute to the leaderboard.
The more activity you do, the more points you get - and points mean prizes! As well as the Activity Log, the Competition Programme will again start in January with a variety of inter-workplace sports on offer. All events are low cost, with no experience necessary, and have an emphasis on fun! Competitions already open for bookings are Table Tennis, Netball and Canoe Slalom. Dates for Badminton, Wheelchair Basketball, Archery and many more will be open for bookings in due course. The challenge is completely free of charge and is there to help you log your progress. You can register online, see competition dates and book online at:

So why not Challenge... Your Colleagues... Your Friends... Yourself!
