JANUARY is traditionally a bumper month for active resolutions and the Sport England national campaign “This Girl Can”, in association with Active Devon, is encouraging women of all shapes and sizes to try out lots of different ways of getting active.

During a month of visits, workshops and other celebratory activities, Active Devon the County Sports Partnership, whose emphasis is on grassroots informal community sport and informal activity, are especially keen to ensure that local classes and active sessions are tailored to the needs of women who may be starting out on their active journey.

“This Girl Can” is a multi-award winning national campaign which celebrates real women up and down the country who are doing their thing to get active no matter how well or badly they do it and no matter how sweaty and red they get.

Active Devon is working in conjunction with local leisure providers to urge women and girls to try out something active this January at their local leisure centres, clubs and activity hubs, all of which offer a wide range of women focused classes.

There will also be a number of volunteer “This Girl Can” ambassadors who are helping to encourage friends, family and other women they know to get active by putting blogs and videos of what they enjoy online through Active Devon’s social media channels.

To join in the conversation via Twitter @activedevon or search for Active Devon on Facebook. You can join in the fun and post what you are doing online.

Just use #ThisGirlCan #Devon in combination and Active Devon will share your posts with other women.
