Active Hodder
This is YOUR page to read, and find out the activities in the area.
I was lucky enough to start work with Together an Active Future in 2022, with the aim to create a whole village approach to physical and mental wellbeing through inclusive activities. "Nothing to Something" and "Something to More". Through 2023 we will be looking to accelerate the progress and to set grounds to make it sustainable and last forever.
Here are some of the projects already happening.
01
Play and Sport Library
A Crowdfunding Lancashire bid, to raise money so that there would be sports equipment readily available for the whole community to access. Providing ease and accessibility into sport and play and to increase the use of the playing field.
02
Rounders and Table Tennis
As a result of the above, a rounders meetup has been started every thursday at 6pm. All are welcome to join.
It has already been shown to be multi-age, multi strating fitness level. And a "right good laugh!" We meet at Dunsop Bridge Playing Fields.
Table Tennis will take over from Rounders in the winter months still on Thursdays from 5:15-7pm
03
Farming Stronger for Longer
It begins with a leaflet distributed mainly through the brilliant field nurses, at the various farming and agricultural shows as well as through the auctions. This is something we hope and can see developing into something really big and possitive.
04
Picnic at the Park
On September 23rd there will be a picnic in the park with games for the kids and adults to join in. Starting with Story Time Movement. Bring your own picnic or order one. Booking at....
05
Move Longevity
A class for those who want to stay biologically young whilst they chronoligally age. A fancy way of saying stay younger for longer. It aims to support balance/strength, cardio, brain health, and community.
06
MoveMore Naturally
A free Introduction to Moving More Naturally in the environment we evolved in, making the connections that we are missing out on. Set as part of the Forest of Bowland AONB events calendar, i wanted to give people the inspiration to do more in nature and to really feel a sense of being part of it.
