Leisure & the Countryside
Everyone should have access to opportunities for
leisure, recreation and culture, but we need to ensure that the
environment doesn't suffer as a result. Transport is one of the
biggest contibutors to climate change gas emissions. By taking part
in leisure and cultural activities closer to home, we can build our
appreciation of our community, environment and our
world.
Worcestershire has many local attractions ranging from museums
and stately homes to leisure centres. The beautiful Worcestershire
countryside provides many opportunities for leisure and
