Get Britain Standing is a UK campaign to increase awareness and education of the dangers of sedentary working and prolonged sitting time.
Regular minor movement whilst at work is essential for us to:
- keep our bodies healthy
- prevent illness and relieve stress
- make us more productive
The On Your Feet Britain Challenge encourages you to convert sitting time to standing time. It’s easier than you think:
- stand during phone calls
- stand and take a break from your computer every 30 minutes
- use the stairs
- have standing or walking meetings
- eat your lunch away from your desk
- walk to your colleague's desk instead of phoning or emailing them
- stand at the back of the room during presentations
Take part in an awareness day where office workers unite together and participate in a variety of activities to sit less and move more at work.
It is free to sign up and download posters and guidelines.
