Bedford Borough Council has announced the return of its Active Adults courses, kicking off on the week of 30 September, with 36 courses across various disciplines aimed at getting the town up on their feet.
You may have seen some of the activities available at the recent Olympic Games in Paris, as well as the Paralympic Games currently ongoing in the French capital with the council running 18 different enterprises for you to get involved with.
They range from tennis and badminton to boxing and swing dance but don’t worry if you’re looking for something a bit more relaxing as there is also yoga, indoor bowls and archery available amongst a host of other activities.
There are sessions for everyone including events specifically for women, beginners, and those living in villages around Bedford Borough, including Bromham, Turvey, Renhold, Great Denham, Wilstead, Kempston, Stagsden, Wootton, and Wixams.
Cllr Sarah Gallagher, Portfolio Holder for Customer Experience, Leisure and Culture, said, “We’re delighted to see the return of the ever-popular Active Adults programme, offering a fantastic range of activities for residents of all abilities.
“Whether you’re looking to try something completely new or rediscover a love for an old favourite, there’s something for everyone. These courses are a great way to get active, have fun, and make new friends.”
All courses are eight weeks long unless otherwise specified and led by experienced and qualified coaches.
