Would you like to make 2025 the year that you become more active, meet new friends and explore new activities, but are unsure how to make this happen?
It could also be that it is a while since you have spent time with people or engaged in hobbies or activity of any kind.
Did you know that it is scientifically proven that taking part in activities can:
boost your self-confidence and improve communication skill
combat feelings of loneliness and isolation
improve physical health
reduce stress, boost your mood and increase your happiness
North Northamptonshire Council’s Leisure team has looked into this and launched the Activity Buddy Scheme which has been created to help break down barriers for adults who may be experiencing challenges which prevent them from taking part in sport or wellbeing activities.
Our Activity Buddy scheme, funded by North Northamptonshire Council Public Health for three years, can help if you're an adult experiencing mental wellbeing, motivational or physical challenges that stop you from participating in sport or active wellbeing sessions.
