Broseley Joggers Couch to 5k programme has been granted £550 to get even more people off their couch and pounding the streets.
The programme, which has seen a successful initial programme, aims to f positively effect and encourage a healthy lifestyle across Broseley and surrounding areas, reducing obesity in Shropshire and thus reduce costs for local healthcare.
A total of 30 residents have participated in the initial programme, and a further 30 people have expressed interest in a second. The money that they have been given will help train three more ‘run leaders’ who are necessary for the programme to continue to positively impact the health of local residents.
