Movement is Life is a podcast series from Intelligent Health focusing upon the importance and benefits of physical activity and active travel. We will explore the many areas within life that these can be addressed, from volunteering, to nature, exercising, and many more. We will have informative and educational conversations with experts from across sectors to share how they are making a difference.
In our fifth episode, host Bethany is joined by Kevin Lafferty, CEO of Paths For All and Dr William Bird, founder of Intelligent Health and Beat the Street. They discuss the fantastic work of Paths for All, taking walking seriously as a form of exercise, the importance of nature when walking, mental health and walking, Walk to School Week, favourite local walks and much more!
