# Stockton Borough Council Family Information Service - 'Let’s Move!' Campaign

   9 November 2026

As well as improving health and fitness, research shows that being active is great for boosting self-confidence, mood, attention levels and sleep quality.

Achieving this doesn’t have to be a challenge – movement can start with just 10 minutes, helping children build up their active time.

When parents and carers get involved, children feel supported, confident and more willing to keep going. The focus is not on being the best; it’s about having a go, building confidence and trying something new together.

Let’s Move! is all about trying new activities together, and having fun, rather than getting it right. Why not try an activity together for 10 minutes, and see how it goes?

For simple, 10-minute ideas to get moving together, visit [NHS.uk/LetsMove](https://www.nhs.uk/healthier-families/activities/).

Across the Borough there are many free or low-cost opportunities for children to have fun being active with their friends and make new friends, including:

- exploring our [parks and trails](https://linkprotect.cudasvc.com/url?a=https%3a%2f%2fwww.stockton.gov.uk%2fparks&c=E,1,2WQF8AFV8Ad9nO67ZHt1p8LuxvghYy0y0Ty9VvjZUKm8mJAQmU9RZVL3uMRhE_NflH4p0icnP34VBZe4bZyxY4DS7f5UXMnA4lGKW90Hvw,,&typo=1) including the [Stockton Waterfront Urban Park](https://linkprotect.cudasvc.com/url?a=https%3a%2f%2fwww.stockton.gov.uk%2fstockton-waterfront&c=E,1,kiwHjyW8HfLyHU4oEezMrn-D2YOo7WkpRQbGmLuTVP2Lv0sZyUk1EmtBhu_w1J897sJE7J31kejPGOjsQYabukAJ7EWvqQkbv4MZrPrN&typo=1)
