The Trust’s successful Senior Spireites group has recently begun its third weekly session.
The group offers those over 55 the opportunity to socialise whilst completing a chair-based exercise session, aiming to increase mobility and reduce loneliness in the elderly generation.
Olly Parkinson, who runs the group, said: “We’re delighted to be starting a new Senior Spireites session.
“The current sessions are extremely popular and are now both at full capacity.”
The new sessions will take place from 1.30pm to 3.30pm every Thursday at the Church of Annunciation, Spencer Street, S40 4SD.
One participant, who has become a regular member of the group, said: “I wish I’d joined the group earlier because it’s brilliant.
“I’ve never done chair-based exercise so I was a bit sceptical of it, but it’s great – I don’t regret it at all.”
