Two of our volunteers, Richard and Richard canoed the Beaulieu River together in April. This photo was at Montacute, which is at the head of the river. #midlifewomen #over55 #over55andfabulous #agepositive #fabulousover50 #over50health #midlife #aginggracefully #midlifehealth
Fauja Singh, the oldest marathon runner in the world didn’t take up running until he turned 89! Fauja is a great example that age doesn't limit your capabilities. The Challenge Hub encourage trying new things & finding new hobbies once you retire.
The All in One is our signature challenge. We thought: “If the young can have The Duke of Edinburgh’s Award then why can’t the over-55s have something similar”. This is our answer – asking you to learn new things, take exercise and make a social contribution.
Did you know that there are 16 National trails in England and Wales which cover 2,500 miles. Take a look at nationaltrail.co.uk. In Scotland the equivalent trails are called Scotland’s Great Trails and are administered by NatureScot.
One of our volunteers hiked by @BlenheimPalace and captured these wonderful photos!📸 Have you thought of taking on a challenge? It can be as big or as small to suit your lifestyle and needs. Take a look at our website to find out more, thechallengehub.org

4 of our complete TCH's members staged walk from the top of the Pennine Way (in Scotland) to Land’s End. “ We’ve had so many mini-experiences and have supported each other at different times in different ways. Walking is such a brilliant way to make friends and meet people.”
We love to see the memories you capture when taking on a challenge!📸 Photography has such an amazing power to inspire. So every month we display new photographs submitted by Members. They remain posted for 3 months. We are ideally looking for photos which: reflect the interest
This week is Mental Health Awareness Week & the theme for this year is nature!🌿 The theme of nature was chosen because “Nature is so central to our psychological and emotional health, that it’s almost impossible to realise good mental health for all without a greater connection
