Rise Brighton & Hove, Littlehampton & Worthing

🎉 4 YEARS OF RAISING SPIRITS & REACHING GOALS! 🥳

Wow, what an incredible milestone! Today, we are celebrating the 4th anniversary of bringing the joy of Rise Life adapted seated sports to the wonderful communities of Brighton, Littlehampton, and Worthing!

From a standing start to 140 sessions per month, getting over 1000 people doing gentle movement, socialising and having fun every month.

Over the last 4 years, our local team has been on a mission to enrich the quality of life through inclusive activity. From care homes and day centres to corporate team-building events, we’ve brought movement, friendly competition, and most importantly—endless smiles and laughter—to hundreds of participants of all ages and diverse abilities. ⭐

What our lovely community says about us: from dementia-friendly cricket and rugby sessions to lively group quizzes, our participants and care providers constantly highlight the "pure joy, confidence boost, and amazing community connection" that each session brings. Hearing the cheers and laughter echo down the corridors makes every single day worth it!

A massive thank you to all the care environments and staff, community partners, families, and our brilliant activity leads who have supported us on this journey. We wouldn't be here without you!

Here’s to many more years of staying active, building confidence, and moving together!

Is it too early to talk about Christmas gifts?
Did you know you can give the gift of Rise?

If you support a charity, community group, or care setting, you can buy a Rise gift voucher, which could pay for a Rise seated sport session. We encounter many organisations that would love to work with us regularly or book us for a themed session – but money/budget can be tight. You could pay for this for them with a gift voucher. Get in touch if you'd like to know more.

🏅 Sport has the power to bring people together.
Whether you're cheering from the sidelines, playing with friends, volunteering at your local club or trying a new activity, sport helps build confidence, friendships and stronger communities.
Whatever your ability, there's a place for everyone to get involved and enjoy being active. We love having residents, staff and family members involved in our sessions!
What's your favourite Rise sport to watch or play?

The episode features Littlehampton and Selsey RNLI crews, a timely reminder of the vital role RNLI volunteers play in our coastal community.

An amazing competitive group at Darlington Court care home, we had the 'Silkwoods' versus the 'Malteasers'. It was end-to-end stuff between them. Thank you for such a fun morning. 🏑🏆
