About the role
Location: East Midlands
Time commitment: To be discussed
Family Lives and Sport England are working to support families get active together, because parents and close family members can have a big impact on children’s experiences. Volunteers will be trained to work directly with families of children aged 5-10 to empower parents to become more active by attending organised and self-directed activities, and through lifestyle changes to improve health and fitness. This is a fitness for all programme and it’s important to meet the parent at their level to create incremental changes that lead to a sustainable, healthier life-style. This will encourage positive feelings about exercise and its value in their children.
