BRIGG NEW YEAR EXERCISE SESSIONS


FROM NORTH LINCOLNSHIRE COUNCIL

Chair-based exercise helps strengthen your muscles, improve your posture, help your circulation and increase your daily activity levels. 
Why not combine getting fit with meeting friends old and new whilst doing gentle exercise sitting on a chair? It's excellent for those who haven’t exercised for a while or are rehabilitating. 
Sessions are taking place in Community Wellbeing Hubs around North Lincolnshire: 
These include: 

Brigg Community Wellbeing Hub, Horstead Avenue, Springbank estate (PICTURED)
Thursday 1.30-2.30

Broughton Community Wellbeing Hub
Wednesday 10.00-11.00
Thursday 10.00-12.00

Here's what some of our members have said about the sessions:
“After my knee replacement the exercises have enabled me to live life to the full again.”
“I have made new friends.”
“We share so many joys and concerns over a cuppa after class.”
“The staff give clear and pleasant instructions that I follow as I do not see clearly – they encourage and praise individual effort.”
"The Hub is such a big part of my life, it is so much fun and the instructors adapt the exercises to suit the people attending.”

The Adult Information Service (AIS) offers information and advice to residents of North Lincolnshire on services and activities available in your area, Adult Social Care, organisations that may be useful to you and other council services.
You can contact the team Monday to Thursday, 9am to 5pm and on Friday, 9am to 4.30pm by telephoning 01724 296607 or email ais@northlincs.gov.uk
