My Carers Active April journey continues. Yesterday I pushed my walking frame from carpark to seafront, a return walk of about a mile and my furthest distance yet. I’d never realised how difficult a frame is to push, uneven flagstones, steep kerbs and people who walk across your path. It takes far longer than just walking and I have to stop every few yards to rest my arms. But every bit of exercise helps, whether your walking, swimming or gardening.

A mile is good going with a frame! Well done!
