Man coaching older people who are sitting on exercise balls and using hand weights

As we get older, keeping active can be even more important. Forever Active offers a range of activities, sports, and classes, all designed for over 50s to improve mobility, strength, and confidence.

Our free annual taster day showcases the wide range of activities we offer. You can try your hand at a range of free activities, including seated exercise classes, table tennis, bowls and more. So there’s sure to be something for everyone!

We recommend that you wear comfortable clothing and suitable footwear.
