Nordic Walking

Nordic Walking – Enjoy an exciting exercise session in the great outdoors!

Nordic walking is a suitable, effective and an enjoyable fitness session for all ages and abilities and is one of the best cardiovascular and toning exercises there is. It’s like cross-country skiing without the skis or the snow!

Using the technique ensures a great exercise session for improving your posture and balance – it is ideal for neck, shoulder and back problems and also reduces the pressure on knees and hips through the support of the poles.

FAB Peer Support Community Sessions

In Wakefield, we are really lucky to have the support of F.A.B. & all their infant feeding peer supporters!

 

The below information lists all of the locations that infant feeding peer supporters are available to offer support and information to help with your breastfeeding. Please note some of these sessions are term time only and occasionally we do have to change times and venues so we recommend that you speak to FAB to check dates and timings before setting out to avoid any disappointment.

 

If you can’t make one of these sessions, please remember that the FAB 24hr Breastfeeding Helpline is 01924 851901 and there is a really friendly & supportive facebook group
