Islington residents are invited to a Keep Active Information Event at Islington Central Library on Wednesday 7th May, 11am–1pm. The event will showcase free and affordable ways to stay active, with advice on activities like guided walks, community gardening, yoga, and more. Representatives from Better Leisure, Arsenal in the Community, Healthy Generations, Healthy Minds, Healthy Bods, and Islington Council will be on hand to offer personalised guidance. If you plan to attend, you are encouraged to fill out the Keep Active Day booking form in advance.
Staying active can cut the risk of dementia, cardiovascular disease, and depression by up to 40 percent. Even small steps—like stretching or a short walk—can bring lasting benefits. The library, located just off Holloway Road, is accessible by bus and tube, and the event will be held on the first floor with lift access available. For more information, or if you have any questions, you can email Katie Skea at kskea@ageukislington.org.uk.
