With support from Street games, the Healthy Spinning Exercise is a project with vision to ensure that women from black and Ethnic Minority in our community stay healthy and have good well-being by engaging in basic exercise routine. The aim is to encourage and support this part of our community who have interest in doing basic exercise but prefer a private and safe space.
Over a short period of time this initiative has grown considerably with the support of like-minded partners and increase demand by women in the community who have made this initiative as part of their weekly routine. The introduction of the Zumba sessions also played a vital role in this project as the most attended sessions till date.
We also added table tennis as part of our weekly engagements with sessions split into women only, men only and mixed sessions each taking place on different days to promote fitness.

We have also set up a Men’s only support group with the aim of creating a networking framework to support and help each other in the community.

These sessions are supposed to promote well-being and facilitate connections that would be beneficial in all facets of life.

We run workshops for employability, entrepreneurship, well-being talks, walks, Games and other activities alike

At the African community centre, we believe sport is a universal language and our football team is a perfect example of how sports especially football can serve as a medium to bring people together regardless of their backgrounds and we understand that there will be barriers to participation hence we provide a holistic framework to facilitate interest of community members to fully participate.
To encourage participation, we practise once every week and are registered in the senior league where we compete at a very high level.

Similar to the value and objectives of the senior team, the youth football practise session also serves as a medium bring young kids together to improve and develop their athleticism and ultimately have fun and make friends.

Our session runs once every week with an experienced coach who facilitates and teaches the young people the beautiful game of football and all the resilience, team work and all other benefits of playing sports in a structured environment.
