About us

We support people with mental health challenges to become more physically active with other
like-minded people.

Meet David Sully, our Coordinator

Our exercise for mental health sessions supports people with mental health challenges to access physical activities and peer support with other like-minded people.

There's research saying that the warm feeling you achieve from physical activities releases happy chemicals in the brain. We also use physical activities to promote positive self-talk, which gives a sense of reward. We're ambitious to offer more activities such as Yoga, Tai Chi, Mobility and Active Stretch for stimulating our positive mental health.

Our service is led by a coordinator. He has fitness, health and marketing qualifications. Since 2012, David successfully ran many community groups, especially our Yate Active Wellbeing Group since 10 October 2013, on World Mental Health Day.
