The Great Moves Project

Making movement enjoyable—for everyone.

The Great Moves Project is designed to make exercise accessible and enjoyable for people who may not usually see movement as fun—especially those with poor health, low motivation, or mobility challenges.

We work closely with participants to support and motivate them, helping to build confidence and interest in gentle, enjoyable movement. Even small, regular routines can improve posture, breathing, core strength, and stability—all of which help to reduce the risk of falls and improve overall wellbeing.

This type of movement has been shown to benefit people in the early stages of dementia, Parkinson’s, and other long-term conditions. It can also support those who are feeling isolated or low in mood, and helps maintain physical health in older adults, including those with limited mobility.

Sessions in the East & West of Hull for more information please call 01482 447673
