If you would like more information about any of the projects please feel free to contact us.
For the LGBTQ+ Community. We predominantly help those who are older who are single and isolated, providing friendly inclusive sessions run by a qualified professional coach from the LGBTQ+ community.
For the Filipino Community. We have women-only sessions to support those who are inactive and alone, typically working in domestic and social care. We also support those who are working in healthcare to better their own health and mental wellbeing. In addition we run family sessions so that different families across all generations can come together in a supportive, friendly and active space.
For Older People (60+). We have a myriad of activities including badminton, table tennis, football and wellbeing (stretching and strengthening based) to encourage and support their physical, social and mental health, create new friendships and reduce isolation.
For Young People (12-18). We offer basketball and other sessions to promote physical activity, reduce isolation and offer alternatives to social media habits, using qualified professional coaching. We offer training, gameplay and outreach to other sessions should they wish to be more competitive and play in teams. We also combine ‘older’ young people who are at college and/or university to come along to sessions as peer support and provide positive role models.
For Students (18-25). We focus on local and overseas students mainly from SE Asia and of Asian heritage to provide a support network for them tackling academic, financial and future career pressures. Programmes are culturally sensitive, managed and facilitated by a qualified professional coach who is also from SE Asia and with similar lived experiences.
All of our work is made possible through the brilliant support of our funders and donors. For more information, please see our Funders and Supporters page.
