Get Up and Go

A great way for parents and children in the borough to stay active and try something new - Get Up and Go are introducing two new family sessions.

Family netball sessions start on Wednesday 25 September. Sessions will be held at Purbrook Park School, from 6pm – 7pm. These are open to anyone aged 7 and above, and cost just £3 a week for the whole family! All kit is provided. To book your place, please go to: Family Netball 

A female-only family boxing course begins on Wednesday 30 October and runs until Wednesday 4 December. This course is suitable for families with children aged 10 and above. Only £10 per family for the whole six weeks! Sessions will be held at Bessey’s Gym, Leigh Park Community Centre, from 4.30pm – 5.30pm. To book your place, please go to: Female-only family boxing

Councillor Gillian Harris, Cabinet Lead for Regeneration & Communities, said: "Not only does staying active benefit your physical wellbeing, but it also helps to improve your mental health. Exercising can be a fun, easy thing to do, no matter your age or ability.

"These family sessions are suitable for beginners - you don't need to be an expert to exercise!"

Havant’s Get Up and Go programme – funded by Energise Me – is aimed at helping residents with physical/mental health conditions stay active through various physical activities.
