Sports club for young African people, 5-18. The aim is to provide total health for children. Keep fit sessions take place at Cintra Park, Reading on every Sunday from 10.00am – 12.00noon. We also provide football coaching sessions for boys and girls under 10 years and boys over 10 years. During keepfit sessions most of the girls play basket ball and badminton. The younger children use the swings and slides on the playground. The boys also play football in the football court. Approximately 30-40 children turn up every week.

We currently have 6 CRB checked volunteers on site each Sunday. Fruits and water are also provided after the session to promote the 5-a-day programme.

During the keep fit sessions the children are taught how to work in a team and achieve a common goal. Children are also given leadership roles during the sessions to promote confidence.
