Tendring District Council is supporting "Get Active Essex" a countrywide campaign that aims to encourage a healthier and more active county.

Statistics show that almost 50% of people in Essex are not participating in sport or physical activity. This campaign, led by Active Essex and supported by Tendring District Council, aims to get the people of Essex more active.

"I am very proud to be the face of Get Active Essex. I am really passionate about encouraging an active and healthy lifestyle and it's fantastic to see a campaign like this. By working with Active Essex I hope to show the importance of keeping active and healthy. I also hope that I can help inspire the people of Essex to try their hand at new sports and activities."
