Getting active in Telford

If 2022 is going to be your year of health, come and discover the fantastic all ability fitness classes going on in the Telford area for anyone aged 50+.

Age UK Shropshire Telford & Wrekin works across the Telford area to help older residents maintain their physical and mental fitness, socialise and develop new hobbies. Our dance fitness class at Hadley Community Centre has morning and afternoon sessions available and we have just launched a line dancing class at Casey’s Cordingley Hall in Donnington, which started last week and will run for 12 weeks at only £1 a session.

All group sessions are delivered by a specialist instructor who encourages and motivates everyone to join in and have fun whatever their age or ability.

One attendee at the new line dancing class said: ‘It was great just to be out and about socialising and getting active whilst enjoying the dancing too.’

Service Development Officer for Age UK Shropshire Telford & Wrekin, Claire Fishlock said: ‘It was so wonderful to see so many have such a great time at the line dancing class today. Watching people laugh, have fun and enjoy time together afterwards over a coffee with friends or making new friends, made it all so worthwhile. We hope more people get involved with all our classes and see how it can make a difference.’
