Almost 1,000 people so far have joined a fitness campaign sweeping Telford and Wrekin… and there are plenty more opportunities to get involved.
Over the next 12 months, volunteers and community groups will host sports, activities as well as road shows, workshops, taster sessions and open days around the borough in parks, village halls and community centres as well as sporting facilities.

Councillor Andy Burford says, “Fun and also support are so important when it comes to being active and we’re lucky to have so many passionate people in our communities helping to create these events.”
