10,000 steps to health and fitness - results of challenge

摘要

We had a huge response to our Feet for life month challenge, which was to try and walk 10,000 steps a day! We sent out 300 '10,000 steps to fitness' packs, containing a pedometer to measure the number of steps taken, plus leaflets on foot health information and tips and advice to achieve your goal. The aim of the campaign was to put across the message that 'feet are for life' and that attention, prevention and care of feet throughout life is important to maintain healthy feet. The SCP also wanted to raise awareness of the term podiatry, and build the image and reputation of podiatrists amongst the general public.
