Active Reach Abingdon
Active Reach Abingdon is a project set up by a group of organisations including Inspiring Minds we were kindly funded by Active Oxfordshire to provide activities during the summer to help get the community more active after lockdowns.
We hosted three traditional family games sessions at southern town park Abingdon. These were fantastic days families joined us and played a range of games including rounders, cricket and a parachute game. We look forward to doing some more of these again in the future.
In November 2020 we worked in partnership with Damascus Introducing the Active Reach Walking Challenge! It is roughly 5000 miles to walk around the beautiful coastline of the UK which is equivalent to around 10 Million steps! We challenged those in South Abingdon to achieve this collectively by walking local walks before the 18th December. WOW What a month the community had! Big thank you to all the adults and young people for taking part
our final Total - 2,383,886
Equal to 1192 Miles!!
Fantastic job!
In partnership with Abingdon and Witney College Oxfordshire Adult Learning we hosted a sit less, get active course and a yoga course. We hope to be able to run these again in the future.
In partnership with Home-Start Southern Oxfordshire first time parents were offered to join Buggy Walk sessions. We are hoping to be able to support these again in the future.
