Regular exercise is important for our physical, mental and emotional health, yet Newham remains one of the country’s least physically active boroughs.
Our aim is to make it easy to get fit, have fun and meet new friends through a range of FREE or low cost sports and fitness activities. We have sessions that are mixed, for men, for women, tailored for over-65s and for young people.
Please see our timetable for details of all our current activities.
