What’s involved?

This FREE Programme is delivered in partnership with your local NHS at our Centres and at other community venues across Blackpool, Fylde and Wyre. The programme consists of 20 sessions over 10 weeks and each session is completely free for the child and their families.

Active Youngsters are Happier – Here’s How We Know…

10 year old Isaac Gibbins recently completed the programme. He enjoyed it so much and felt such a sense of personal achievement that he is now an Ambassador for the Programme. Isaac will be attending sessions, meeting and greeting new young programme participants so their first sessions are less daunting.
