HAPPY NEW YEAR!
January is the time of year when many of us focus our efforts on breaking habits that no longer support us and strive to live a healthier lifestyle by eating better and incorporating exercise into our life. Dry January, zero consumption of alcohol, has been gaining traction over the years, especially post pandemic. Design & content by: Aileen Green. More information can be found by visiting the 'SUP Medway Fb page.
DRY JANUARY-ARE YOU IN? Start the year fresh. Medway community members that are part of 'SUP Medway are encouraging you to pause alcohol use for the first month of the year. This trend started in 2012 and now millions of people across several countries take part in this annual health challenge. Design credit: Carolynne Benedetto
