With 160 fitness classes and community events to get involved with there will be something for everyone living in Wandsworth. 

The festival of events coincides with International Older People’s Day and will run from 1 to 31 October 2024.  

All the sessions, activities and classes will be free including some one-off coffee mornings and lunches.  

With events varying from walk and talks to group get togethers for Autistic adults aged 50+.   

Getting to know others in your local area is an important part of Brighter Living, you can try out new things such drawing, printing, reiki, pop in for a singalong or attend a health and well-being session 

The fitness and exercise classes are designed for all abilities including those with limited mobility.  

Many have seated exercise options available, just let the instructor know when you arrive.  

As well as improving balance and flexibility to help maintain the ability to perform everyday tasks for longer and prevent falls regular exercise releases endorphins that improve your overall mood.  

Brighter Living gives adults the opportunity not only to try something new but also to return to some activities they may not have done for a while and to make new friends and connections.  

All helping you to remain independent and healthy within your community.
