Every year Purley BID runs a “Be Active” Campaign in January and February as part of our year-long Live Well in Purley project.
This year we will also be supporting Mind In Croydon campaign called Red January.

Mental health is closely associated with physical health so we are really pleased to be supporting Mind and the great work they do.
