Physical activity for families
Active Together is our physical activity programme for anyone who wants to try new activities and sports as a family.
Currently online, resuming face-to-face delivery as soon as safe to do so.
For families with children between the ages of 5-11 – bring all of the family along!
What you’ll be doing
Physical activity is beneficial for everybody. In children it has been shown to improve health, confidence and happiness and has a positive effect on concentration in school and beyond, improving memory and classroom behaviour.
Active Together is all about families with children planning and making decisions together on the kinds of activities they want to do. We encourage families with children in primary school to increase their physical activity levels, doing at least 30-60 minutes of activity a week.
It does not matter what activity people do or how good they are at it – having fun together is what’s important and helps ensure children grow up to be active adults.
We support and inspire families of all ages and abilities to be active together throughout the week by delivering positive and enjoyable physical activity experiences both online, and in the local community.
