I Can Move More

04/02/2026

Hannah, the Community Coordinator at Valley Leisure, was joined by Naomi from Doda Yoga in supporting a Quit Smoking Campaign Day held on Saturday at Knights Enham School 🚭

Together, they offered essential wellbeing advice and support to the Andover community, helping residents take positive steps towards a smoke-free life 💪

It was a wonderful day of connection, empowerment and shared efforts to improve the health and wellbeing of the local community 💜

🧩 Riddle time!

I help you grow stronger, keep your heart happy,
I can be slow or fast, and make you feel snappy.
I’m not a pill, but I can heal your mind,
What am I? 🤔

💡 Hint: A little of me each day goes a long way for your wellbeing...

🌟 What is I Can Impact?

At I Can Move More, impact is about making a real difference in people’s lives 💜 From improving strength, balance, and overall wellbeing, to boosting confidence, calm, and social connection, every step, class, and session helps people live better for longer.

Sometimes, that impact is felt so deeply that people find new ways to express it. One participant from our Yoga for Wellbeing sessions was so moved by their experience that they wrote us a poem - capturing how yoga supported their mental health, self-belief, and sense of peace.

We’re proud to share their words as a reflection of the change they experienced...

Absolutely love this! 💪 Keeping your strength and balance up is so important for staying independent and enjoying all the things that make life fun. Even tiny daily actions can make a real difference - well worth fitting in! 🌟
