We missed these images from last month – so we thought we'd share photos of the fun Volleyball session from November.

We rotate our sports, so unlike other 'chair fitness' sessions our aren't getting the same thing every time. We try to get our continuity with the same Activity Leaders and the framework routine of what we do, but the themes and music provide different stimulation on each visit.

If you don't work with us already, then do get in touch to book a free taster session for your care setting or community group.

Thank you Romans Care Home - Keychange Charity we love the video of the 'elves' working on getting the presents in the sleigh (goals). Alice and Pam from Rise are getting everyone into gentle movement whilst having Christmas fun. 🤶🧑‍🎄🎅🎄🏆

Thanks for the fun – pictured is just the warm-up, which included a great 'Noddy Holder' impression too.
All attendees wore Christmas hats, passed their 'Elf' certificates in being able to work for Santa (passing parcels and throwing presents into the sleigh), and then had an amazing snowball session. (thank you to the staff that took part too). 🏈🎱🏆🎄☃️🫧

🏥 There are currently around 50 people in hospital across Sussex unwell with Flu.

Flu is not 'just a cold' or the sniffles, it can be very serious.

The best way to keep yourself from becoming severely ill is by getting vaccinated, but it's also important to stay home if you have Flu like symptoms and practice good hand hygiene.
