I am really pleased to be supporting the Daily Mile initiative which is taking place between Wednesday 7th and Friday 9th November. The Daily Mile can have a huge impact on the lives of children, helping them to be fitter, healthier and happier.

You may well already know of this qreat initiative, and if so I would be delighted to hear of your own school activities. For those schools not yet signed up, the Daily Mile is a social physical activity, with children running or jogging – at their own pace – in the fresh air with friends for 15 minutes. 6,000 schools nationwide have signed up, and I would encourage all South Northants schools to get involved. If you have not already signed up to this wonderful cause please do so at www.thedailymile.co.uk
