We’re now two weeks into our Stronger Shakers: Healthy Hearts programme at Bury FC, and it’s been fantastic to see participants enjoying the sessions and making positive changes to their health and wellbeing.
Over the first two weeks, participants have taken part in gentle chair-based exercise, strength and balance activities, and interactive nutrition workshops. It’s been great to see everyone encouraging one another, sharing experiences, and growing in confidence each week. Many participants have commented on how welcoming and enjoyable the sessions are, and they’re already looking forward to coming back each Tuesday.
Good news – we now have more spaces available!
The programme is designed to help people aged 50+ become more active, improve their confidence, and support long-term heart health. The fully funded programme runs for 15 weeks, so there’s still plenty of time to join and benefit from everything on offer.
If you or someone you know is aged 50 or over, lives in Bury East or Bury West, and would like to improve their health in a friendly and supportive environment, we’d love to welcome you.
Hannah Brindle, Community Development Officer, said:
“It’s been wonderful to see people coming together over the last two weeks, supporting one another and taking positive steps towards improving their health. Healthy Hearts is about much more than exercise – it’s about building confidence, making new friendships and helping people feel healthier and more connected”.
Sessions take place every Tuesday from 10.00am–11.00am at Gigg Lane, home of Bury FC
