RESIDENTS are invited to kick-start a healthier lifestyle by taking part in 30 minutes of exercise every day.
The 30:30 campaign, run by the Active Essex Foundation, starts in June.
The challenge is to complete 30 minutes of physical activity every day for 30 days, which could be anything from taking a brisk walk to dance classes.
Clacton Clubbercise teacher Sarah Bockhart will be hosting Clubbercise sessions for residents.
She said: “Whilst I used to be overweight and unfit, physical activity has helped me to live a much healthier and happier life.
“The 30:30 Essex challenge is a great and achievable way to get people into regular activity through choosing their own way.
“We are lucky to have such a beautiful seafront in Clacton, which residents can use to achieve their 30 minutes of daily exercise.
“Alternatively, they could attend one of our weekly Drum & Bass workouts.”
Jason Fergus, trustee of the Active Essex Foundation, added: “It’s about helping residents understand the benefits of being active.”
