Making a choice to be active doesn’t need to be difficult. With a little help from the resources on these pages, it can be rewarding and fun.

We hope to help Portsmouth residents become more active by encouraging more people to walk or to get  on their bikes – Portsmouth is ideally suited to walking and cycling as it’s flat and compact.
