TWO Kirklees health initiatives have been applauded at the British Heart Foundation National Conference.

Both projects – Moving More Often and Walk4life – have been developed and run by the Kirklees Sport and Physical Activity Team.

Moving More Often offers training and support to paid workers and volunteers who care for the frail and elderly.

More than 900 people have taken part in training.

Walk4life encourages women in Dewsbury to get walking.
