Try Walking Tennis – Great Big Green Week
Looking for a fun, gentle way to get active outdoors? Join Littleover Valley Tennis Club to try Walking Tennis this Great Big Green Week—an easy, inclusive version of tennis designed for all ages and abilities.
Whether you’re new to sport, returning after a break, or simply want to enjoy being outside, walking tennis is a great way to move more, meet people, and boost your wellbeing.
Why getting outside matters
Many of us spend up to 90% of our time indoors, missing out on the benefits of fresh air and nature.
Great Big Green Week is the perfect chance to change that.
Spending time outdoors—even through light activities like walking tennis—can have a real impact on mental health:
Reduces stress: Just 20–30 minutes in nature can lower stress hormone levels
Boosts mood: Around 80–85% of people say being in nature increases happiness
Eases anxiety: 74% report reduced stress and anxiety after time outdoors
Supports resilience: Nearly half of people say green spaces help them cope with stress
Improves energy & focus: Many people feel more energised (68%) and focused (65%) outside
Even short sessions outdoors—just 10–50 minutes—can improve mood and wellbeing.
