Sport England Together Fund

Get Active in St Werburghs – Autumn 2022!

We are incredibly grateful to Wesport, Voscur and Sport England as we have received funding from their Together Fund to support five projects at the Centre. This will enable us to run a number of more affordable classes for our community over the next six months. The projects – which have been co-created with members of the community – are designed to encourage physical activity among people who may not otherwise have the opportunity, help revive the classes affected by the Covid pandemic, and welcome those who may not normally participate, including parents of children with SEND. These projects also support the workshop leaders in continuing to deliver accessible and enjoyable activities for our community.

Some classes may need to be booked in advance. For drop-in classes, please call ahead or email reception before attending to ensure your session is running. The classes are listed below and you can find out more about any of these projects by contacting us: 0117 955 1351 or office@stwerburghs.org.uk.
