Join us for Dance in the Parks, a fantastic initiative brought to you by DanceWest in collaboration with Sport England. Taking place in July, this exciting programme invites you to embrace the outdoors and embark on a journey of dance, health, and wellbeing.

Now in its fourth year, Dance in the Parks is designed to bring people together, promoting a sense of unity and joy through the power of movement. Whether you’re an experienced dancer or just looking to try something new, our bite sized dance sessions cater to all ages and all levels of ability.

Led by our talented instructors, each session offers a dynamic and invigorating workout that will leave you feeling energised and inspired. We believe that access to quality fitness should be available to everyone. So gather your friends, family, and neighbours, and join us in celebrating the spirit of community while taking care of your health and wellbeing.

Imperial Health Charity works with Imperial College Healthcare NHS Trust in central and north-west London.

Following the enormous popularity of our Summer Youth Volunteering Programme, recruitment has opened for our term time programme which starts in September. We seek young people who live within a few miles of our hospitals to lend a hand on wards, offering friendly companionship to patients at the bedside, delivering meals at lunchtime and carrying out other useful tasks that help staff provide the best possible care. Please note we do not offer work experience.

Our Youth Volunteering Programme gives young people the opportunity to learn new skills and gain invaluable experience in a unique setting. We welcome local young people who are aged 16-21, whether young people who are interested in a future career in healthcare, or those who simply wish to support their local hospital. We give training and support to every young person we take on.

Applications close on 23 July. However, we will close applications earlier if we receive a very high number, so please encourage young people to apply well before the closing date.

 Applicants must be aged 16 by 25 August. We carry out Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) checks on all potential volunteers, to determine their suitability to volunteer in our hospitals.

Full details about the programme, key dates and how to apply can be found here.  Thank you for sharing this opportunity with your young people.

 

There are still spaces available for people in the community to join us at the More Than A Game Open Day to give them the opportunity to try our More Than A Game Football programme!

The day aims to provide a taster session of our weekly More Than A Game Football sessions, which include fun and inclusive football and wellbeing activities for adults (18+) of all abilities and experiences.

On the day participants will be able to take part in these activities, get a sense of our sessions, and meet and learn about local services and activities that can support their wellbeing.

The Open Day will take place on Saturday 22nd July 2023 from 1pm until 3pm at Fulham FC Training Ground, New Malden, Motspur Park, KT3 6PT.
