May 24th, 2008 | Published in News
Today is the start of Outdoor Activity Week, which aims:
- To achieve a greater understanding among the general public of the scope of outdoor provision and the benefits of participation, with the aim of increasing demand.
- To promote the value of the outdoors as a venue for healthy exercise, fresh air, recreation and appreciation of the rural and natural environment.
- To contribute to achieving a balanced view of risks and benefits and to promote an adventurous approach to life.
Basically, it wants everyone in the UK to get outdoors and do something adventurous. Which means it’s a great opportunity to promote Scouting and the KidsOutdoors campaign!
