Over 50? Activities in your community

South Ribble Borough Council employ a Physical Activity Coordinator whose job it is to establish what activity sessions are available across the Borough for the Over 50s whether taking place in Leisure Centres, Village Halls, Community Centres or Local Clubs.

It has been well publicised recently that the British population is ageing, with it been suggested that over 50% of the population will be over 50 in the next 20 years. It is, therefore, becoming increasingly important to promote the opportunities available for the Over-50s to keep active.

With the launch of the Free Swim Scheme for the Over-60s in local leisure centres and the Solid Gold Club for the Over 50s at Leyland Leisure Centre recently, there isn't a better time for the older generation to find their way back to sport and physical activity.

The Coordinator produces a quarterly newsletter that details activities taking place in South Ribble that are particularly targetted at the over 50s. Download the latest newsletter and find out more here
