About the Projects

We are a project based in the community providing support and advice on the health needs of Kendray, Worsbrough and Town Centre.  Our aim is to provide support to groups and individuals across these areas by increasing the well being of communities.  We have established over 15 groups, most of which are free (see below for details) in these areas for the community to access. 

 

 

 

We also provide a Health Trainer Service which is available for one-to-one support which health and well being issues.

Fit Reds Match

 

The project was recently involved in a Fit Reds 1 and Fit Reds 2 football match at the Oakwell ground. 


The game was held on the Monday 09/05/2011 @ Oakwell, 6pm Kick off.  After a dramatic game in which the lead changed hands several times, Fit Reds 1 won the game 6-4.  

 

The game was very well attended with 220+ people at the event, it also provided the opportunity to complete and offer Health checks and Lifechecks to the attendees. 

Our volunteer Health Educators were also in attendance at the event and gave general health tips to people.

 

Bobby Hassell and Howard Webb were special guests and Bobby Hassell selected the man of the match who was Mark Heeley the Fit Reds 1 Captain.  He was presented with a signed match ball. 

 

There was a trophy and medal celebration after the match which Bobby Hassell also presented. 

 

A great celebration of what has been a successful part of our Health Project and a model which we are continuing with Fit Reds 3.
