WOMEN'S HEALTH

     
 

 

While not all of the workforce are female the majority have female relatives or friends.


Family health also plays an important part in our general wellbeing.


The World Health Organisation advises that:

 

Addressing women’s health is a necessary and effective approach to strengthening health systems overall – action that will benefit everyone.


Improving women’s health matters to women, to their families, communities and societies at large.

Looking After Your Feet

     
 

Walking is one of the most important ways of keeping active. Walking helps the muscles and ligaments in our feet to work more efficiently and helps keep them supple and flexible. Walking improves and maintain overall health, increases cardiovascular fitness, strengthen bones, reduce excess body fat, and boost muscle power and endurance.


We are encouraged to walk, because “Walking is a man's best medicine", according to Hippocrates – and a growing body of scientific evidence suggests he wasn't wrong.


For us to walk effectively, we need to look after our feet, and according to the College of Podiatrists we walk about 100,000 miles in a lifetime.

Stress Awareness

     
 

Stress is a conundrum. This is because it is not easy to pin down exactly what stress means. Most people represent ‘stress’ with situations that put them under pressure. For example, when we have lots to do and think about, or don't have much control over what happens to us, we say things like "this is stressful," or "I'm stressed". Also, our reaction to being placed under pressure – the feelings we get when we have demands placed on us that we find difficult to cope with, we also represent as stress”.
