Vision Redbridge Culture & Leisure have been providing Redbridge residents with lots of free opportunities to “get into” physical fitness and the chance to discover what other activities are available across Redbridge. Part of a brand new partnership with Redbridge Institute.
✔ Are you feeling low and would benefit from some ‘me’ time?
✔ Do you need support to be more active?
✔ Are you looking to improve your wellbeing?
✔ Would you like to try something new or re-connect with an old interest?
If you have answered ‘Yes!’ to any of the above, come and get involved.
Whether it’s dance, yoga, Pilates, fitness, or gardening, those joining can choose an activity to suit them. Once residents have a taste of doing things like Zumba, swimming or cycling, our hope is that they’ll feel more confident to come along to a class running on a regular basis within the Borough.
Those joining can come along to try something new, re-connect with an old interest or something they’ve never thought to try before: supporting people to move more and enhance their positive wellbeing. Attendees do not need to be experienced in fitness or exercise; no matter the age or fitness level, anyone can join and reap the positive benefits of joining the sessions.

Mental Health Awareness
Vision Redbridge Culture & Leisure ran programme of events for Mental Health Awareness Week.
Linking into the 5 Ways To Wellbeing, to support you to ‘Get Active, Connect, Take Notice, Learn and Give’.
Redbridge Libraries have also curated a reading collection based on the theme of ’loneliness’ for children and young adults. These books will help children demonstrate how connection with loved ones matters.
If you would like materials and resources for support then check out the collection at the link below.
The partnership is funded from the Mayor of London’s Adult Education Budget and beneficiaries of the program will develop confidence to become active citizens and participate in physical activities in their local community. Plus, it’s FREE to sign up and take part, get fit and have fun.
