This Girl Can Launch New Campaign Let’s Get Out There

This Girl Can have launched their new campaign, Let’s Get Out There, which seeks to inspire more women to enjoy the many benefits of being active outdoors.

We know that women, in particular those from culturally diverse backgrounds, face greater barriers to accessing and enjoying outdoor spaces – whether it’s a lack of access or awareness, or not knowing what to expect. But spending time in green and blue spaces – from urban parks and canals, to coastal paths and forests – is great for your physical and mental health, boosting your happiness and confidence. What’s more, getting active outdoors might be easier than you think, and you can do it from your doorstep – it’s low-cost and you don’t need lots of gear to get started. – This Girl Can

“This Girl Can is all about celebrating women being active in a way that’s right for them, and there are so many great ways to get active outdoors.” – Kate Peers, Strategic lead for campaigns, This Girl Can

Whether it’s going for a stroll along a nearby canal, enjoying a walk in your local forest or simply exploring your nearest park, there are plenty of opportunities to get active outdoors that are free and accessible. The new Let’s Get Out There campaign will raise awareness of some of the barriers preventing women from enjoying the benefits of outdoor activity, as well as spotlighting some of the brilliant groups helping women to overcome these barriers.

In It Together Somerset will be supporting this campaign across Somerset, to encourage women to get active outdoors. In It Together will do this by offering affordable or free courses set in green spaces across the county from Yoga to Cricket to Paddleboarding! They will be working in collaboration with The National Trust, Forestry England and the Canal & River Trust to deliver these courses.

They will be sharing resources across their social media in the coming weeks, to provide insight, resources and support to help get women active outdoors. Let’s Get Out There!
