 Watch our tutorial here

When you log in to your challenge for the first time after registering, the system will ask if you would like to join or create a team.

You can search for a team to join or create your own team.

1. Creating a team (10 people max) – You can create your own team and invite your friends and colleagues to join by sending invites to their email addresses. When creating your own team, you can choose either of the following options:
   • Anyone can join.
   • Invite only.
2. Searching for a team – If you have been told by a colleague about a team name, or you want to search for your department it is easy to search for existing teams that you would like to join by typing their name into the box. We have also set up some generic teams that you are welcome to join, these are called Active Wellbeing Team 1, Active Wellbeing Team 2, Active Team 3 etc etc, choose one that has an available space.

4. How to add your activity

 Watch our tutorial here

You can manually add your distance, or if you have a smartphone or watch it will sync your activity automatically – you just need to set it up first.

1. Syncing your activity – Syncing your steps is the simplest way to automatically add your daily activity to the challenge. See how you can sync your steps from Fitbit, Garmin Connect, Apple Health on iOS and Google Fit on Android.
2. You can easily enable syncing from your chosen device – on the desktop go to your dashboard, my account, settings, connected apps.
3. Syncing on the iPhone and android app, open the menu, sync devices, then connect to the service of your choice.
4. Adding your distance manually – You can manually add your activity via the challenge website and our challenge app by using the “Add Activity” option on your dashboard. You can also use the Minutes Conversion Chart link within the box to convert your time exercised into steps, then you simply choose the date, enter the number of steps and press add. You can also find the full Activity Conversion Chart here.
