Council urges residents to look after their wellbeing in Bedford Borough

With the infection rate remaining high in the Borough and residents advised to continue to stay home where possible, Bedford Borough Council is reminding everyone of the support and advice available to look after your mind and body.

In April, the council created a new webpage, www.bedford.gov.uk/wellbeing, offering advice to Bedford Borough residents on how to look after themselves whilst at home during the coronavirus outbreak and beyond.

With regular updates, the site offers advice and signposting to help residents stay healthy.

This page also includes a range of materials, such as:

• Exercise tips including indoor games for kids, live fitness classes, and seated exercises
• Mental health advice and links to services that can provide help
• Food and nutritional guidance including Change4Life resources, recipes and cooking videos
• Further Public Health advice including sexual health, stop smoking, drugs and alcohol, health checks and emotional wellbeing
