National Fit as a Fiddle Project

Sporting Equals have been appointed as a national partner with Age UK to deliver its National Fit as a Fiddle programme which aims to help empower people to live more healthy, active and fulfilling lives, and their aim is to increase awareness of health and well being benefits to males/females that are over the age of 50 within ethnic minorities.

The programme will be delivered through volunteers who will be given a fully funded training programme over a two-day period. The project will involve free training delivered by Sporting Equals to community based organisations and volunteers to enable them to work with BME older people to become fit and active.

If you think your organisation would like to be involved please contact Lorna Babb, Project Officer, Phone: 0121 325 5470
