Staff Clothing for Walk to Work Week

Walk to Work Week is a national challenge organised by the charity Living Streets. Taking place from the 14th to the 18th of May 2012 it promises to be well supported by companies and organisations up and down the land.

The overall aim of the week is to get people walking to and from work, whilst at work, during lunchtime and beyond thereby improving peoples health and well being.

Organisations and employees are encouraged to sign up to the challenge and utilise the online tools available to record how much walking they do.
