Free swim for those in Medway who make health pledges

More than 1,000 people have signed up to a health campaign and
now they are all being offered a free swim.
Residents have vowed to improve their health and well being in
2013 as part of A Better Medway’s Healthy New Year scheme.
Pledges include exercising more, eating less takeaways, giving
up smoking, joining a gym, taking the stairs instead of the lift
and cooking more healthy meals with the family at home.
Among those who have made pledges are all of the players at
Gillingham FC.
Due to the overwhelming response since the campaign was launched
in November, A Better Medway is rewarding participants with a free
swim.
Everyone who makes a pledge in January at a high street event
will receive an exclusive voucher for a free swim at any Medway
Council pool.
People who have made their pledge by post, online or at a
previous event can claim their free swim by contacting A Better
Medway.
Pledges can be made in person at a high street event, or by post
using the official pledge entry form, available at GP surgeries,
pharmacies, libraries or community hubs.
Make a pledge at one of the following events, Strood Market –
Tuesday, January 15; Chatham High Street – Thursday, January 24;
Hempstead Valley Shopping Centre – Thursday, January 31.
