Some great promotions for National Obesity Week in Sussex

October 28th, 2009 by Chris Clapham

weight_lifting_cartoon_manBy 2050 almost 60% of the UK population could be obese… now there’s a scary fact.

Regular readers of our blog and newsletter will know that we are an active and healthy bunch of people here at Propellernet. We regularly take part in events such as the Brighton half marathon, Tough Guy and we reached the semi finals of the Brighton Business Volleyball tournament.

We’ve even launched our own ‘wellbeing’ team focused on continually improving employee wellbeing, which has seen us receive nominations for ‘the healthiest workplace’ and ‘best employer’ at the BAHBAs, The Sussex Business Awards and the Sussex Sports Awards. So we can definitely vouch for the concept of health body = healthy mind.

All this brings me neatly onto the purpose of this blog post, to highlight a couple of great offers being promoted in the Brighton & Hove and Worthing areas, in association with National Obesity Week (2nd - 8th Nov 2009):

  • DC Leisure, in Partnership Sussex County Sports Partnership Trust, are offering a free 7 day pass to DC Leisure facilities in the Brighton & Hove Area. Offering a great chance to try out a gym for free and see if it’s for you. For more information on how to take advantage of this offer, download the DC Leisure flyer.
  • Worthing Leisure, also in Partnership Sussex County Sports Partnership Trust, are running a Weight Loss Challenge, with the added benefit of six weeks free membership to Fit4. The closing date to enter a team is this Friday 30th Oct 2009. For more information on how to take advantage of this offer, download the Worthing Leisure flyer.

Finally, if you want to read about more about our ‘wellbeing’ project and what we are doing  at Propellernet to stay healthy and active, then read Annelies’ blog post from last month: “Is Propellernet the Healthiest Workplace?”
