Movement Hour 2025

Our lives are busier than ever and it can often be hard to prioritise ourselves and our health and fitness. So what if we could help employees find a bit of time for themselves during the work day? That’s why I'm calling on all employers across the country to give their employees an hour off work in March to move their bodies and feel the benefits of daily physical exercise.

Will you join me?

What will the Foundation do?

I truly believe that physical activity and exercise is so important for the health of our nation. Everyone should have access to resources or programmes that help them to get moving and live healthier and happier lives – but the truth is, not everybody does. 

Our charity will offer grants to organisations such as local sports clubs, youth clubs, local community projects and smaller charities across England, Wales, Ireland, Northern Ireland and Scotland that exist to help improve people’s physical and mental health. 

Imagine a struggling youth club being able to offer free football sessions to kids, or a local community group being able to start a free fitness class for new mums. These are the kinds of projects I can’t wait to support.

How can I make it work for my business?

We understand that committing to a specific hour of the day might be impossible for some businesses, so we invite you to hold the hour at a time that works for you – or break it up throughout the week. 

It’s about all of us joining together and committing to some healthier workplace habits.

How do I sign up?

If you want to join in, just sign up here and answer a few very simple questions about your business and how you can get involved.

Once you’ve registered, please keep an eye out for assets you can use to share on your own channels. They’ll be available to download from early 2025. By committing to take part, you'll also be in with a chance to get a visit to your business from Joe in 2025.
