Mondays have become extra special for families attending our Sport England funded Dare to Move Family Fitness sessions at Monkton Stadium. These classes are a way to keep active, but most importantly they are about confidence, engagement, and fun for children of all abilities.

One parent shared this about her 5-year-old, who is currently undergoing an ASD assessment:

“The instructor has been incredible. She remembered my daughter’s interests, suggested activities she loves, and made sure she felt included, even when she felt anxious. My daughter didn’t participate fully every week, but she still wanted to be there.”

Our staff's creativity, patience, and warmth make every child feel supported, engaged, and excited to join in, even if it’s just a little at first.

We’d love to see more children enjoying these sessions! Local families and schools, come along and experience the fun. Your child’s next favorite activity could start here.
