On Your Feet Britain is the national activity awareness day when desk-based workers across Britain take part in a variety of fun and simple activities to #sitless and #movemore at work.

On this day, convert ‘sitting time’ to ‘standing time’. Here are some simple changes you can try and encourage your staff to try as well:

• Stand during phone calls
• Stand and take a break from your computer every 30 minutes
• Use the stairs more
• Arrange standing or walking meetings
• Eat your lunch away from your desk
• Walk to a colleague’s desk instead of phoning or emailing them
• Stand at the back of the room during presentations
