People’s Health Trust grant makes a world of difference to our Unique Feet group

In autumn 2017 we were delighted to be funded by a People’s Health Trust grant using money raised by Health Commit through the Health Lottery to help grow and develop our Unique Feet children’s activity group. People’s Health Trust is an independent charity funded by 51 local society lotteries and the money they raise through The Health Lottery and we are honoured to have received their support.

So why yoga?
As our poster explains, yoga helps children to develop greater body awareness, improves attention span, supports them to develop muscle tone, flexibility, circulation and lung capacity.
The health benefits are significant but benefits come also in their confidence and they learn new skills and surprise themselves at what they can achieve together. Most of all they have a chance to meet together and have fun!

There are a wide range of bikes to suit individuals or groups which are great fun to try. We’ve been trying out the colourful array of specially adapted bikes to help those with disabilities to take to their wheels and to support others to build confidence in riding.



It’s wonderful to see friendships and community developing amongst our local families living with rare conditions who can often feel isolated. The group is a wide mix of children of different ages and all with different conditions.
