Step Forward With Lewis CIC

Yesterday Mary decided she needed a bit of a warm up before the session started 😂

What’s a day ‘making a difference’ like?

Martyn from our strength and balance class at Hardingstone took some time out to reveal how the sessions encourage community, as well as boosting people’s fitness.

One of our clients today is registered blind and Martyn explained how the classes can be catered for all involved, while also talking about the social elements that go beyond each session.

We’re really proud to have been named as a finalist in BBC Northampton Make A Difference Awards in the Active Category and to be able to help people like Martyn stay fit, confident and independent.

Thank you JAM - Helping Out❤️ this will not only give those that are vulnerable or with life changing conditions the opportunity to exercise for free and socialise, but also those that have carers a mini break to themselves x

💚 A huge thank you to Orchard Home Cleaning Ltd and Ann Brebner for supporting our community!

Did you know that throughout August, Orchard Home Cleaning is donating £25 to Step Forward With Lewis CIC for every new regular cleaning client they sign up?

It's a wonderful example of a local business giving back and helping make a real difference in people's lives.

Thank you, Orchard Home Cleaning, and thank you, Ann, for your generosity and commitment to our community. 💚

I have just been told I am a finalist in the BBC Make a Difference Award 😮 ❤️

We are always grateful for all the support we get from a wide variety of backers.

Today, we wanted to celebrate how our project was made possible thanks to players.

We are so grateful to the National Lottery Community Fund's support for our strength and balance classes for older and more vulnerable people.

Their generous grant will allow us to continue offering these vital sessions for FREE for the rest of this year and into February 2027!!

We currently run six general strength and balance classes every week, allowing around 180 people to improve their flexibility and balance, and to become more confident and independent.

Our classes are proven to reduce the risk of falls and to ease pressure on the NHS. We also hold community at the heart of everything we do - two of our members even got married!

Without funding, we would have to charge people to come to these sessions, meaning some of the most vulnerable people in society would be at risk of missing out.

So, a MASSIVE shout out again to the - THANK YOU!
