RED January is turning 10! Together let’s Rise Every Day and move to boost your mood this winter.
About us
RED (Rise Every Day) January is a global initiative that empowers people to move to boost their mood. Hannah Beecham MBE was inspired to launch RED January after witnessing the positive impact that regular physical activity had on her mum’s mental health during the winter. It’s time of year that can be challenging for us all, with evidence of lower activity levels, mood and energy. Since the launch back in 2014, the RED community has grown in support and strength, with hundreds of thousands of people joining to prioritise their own wellbeing and the wellbeing of their communities through fundraising, so far raising over £3.2 million. RED’s ambition is to make January a more positive and energising month of the year for everyone, with the RED communities fundraising efforts helping to drive real change in local communities year-round.

Throughout December and into the new year, almost 50 universities across the country are lighting up their student campuses, RED! Feedback from universities shows that RED January not only inspires active students to keep moving throughout the winter, it also reaches students that would describe themselves as ’non sporty’ and ‘intimidated by team sports’, to move in a way that works for them and makes them feel good. Work or study at a university and interested in joining RED January? Would love to hear from you at hannah@redtogether.co.uk A special thank you to Wez Merchant and the team at Strike Media for securing this collaboration, and to RockBox Advertising for their incredible RED support. Community in action!

'Something positive to look forward to in the New Year. Something to make January brighter' Team Mind Over Mountains From workplaces, schools and universities, to families and friendship groups, heartwarming to see more teams than ever before joining RED January!
Not a Christmas message (despite the Santa hat!). So why are we in RED? Because we have all signed up to take part in! Something positive to look forward to in the New Year. Something to make January brighter. Not a 'get fit' pressure - but a simple commitment to Rise Every Day and move in a way that works for each of us. Some are running, some are walking, some are yoga-ing - and some are doing a mix. And signing up to dance around the kitchen every day is also just as acceptable! This is about making January light up, sharing the experience to support each other, and being part of the UK wide RED community. A mass campaign to support our own mental wellbeing in a month that can feel less than bright at times. And raising funds for Mind Over Mountains to provide outdoor mental health support as we do it. Will you and your team join too? Such a GREAT way to feel positive and motivated together this January. https://lnkd.in/e8MAsxHs Go on! Join in today - it's a wonderful thing to look forward to 😄 #redjanuary #positivity #movement #moveyourway #riseeveryday #newyear #mentalhealth #mentalwellbeing #teamwellbeing
