Find yourself wanting to be more active in 2012? Then take part in our next ‘Give it a go week’ from the 20th to 26th February, Bucks resident, and Strictly Come Dancing star, Brendan Cole will be right behind you. For him, keeping active is a way of life. “When you dance, or do whatever else you love, you’re too preoccupied to stress or strain about anything else. It’s great.” So start your New Year by trying something new or return to an activity you once did with the Reactivate programme.
