Epworth -Fitness for those living with Dementia and their Carers
Staying active helps both physical health and emotional wellbeing—especially for carers and those living with dementia. That’s why The Carers Support Service offers Fitness Sessions for PLWD (People Living With Dementia) and their carers in two locations across North Lincolnshire.
These sessions meet on the fourth Thursday of every month* except bank holidays. You can choose between:
11:00 am at CrosbyONE, Scunthorpe (Digby Street, DN15 7LU)
1:00 pm at Thurlow Pavilion (Station Road, Epworth, DN9 1JU)
Each session focuses on building strength, balance, and mobility—while keeping activity fun and sociable. The movement routines are gentle and fully adaptable to suit each participant’s abilities.
These classes provide more than exercise—they offer connection. You’ll work alongside others who understand your journey, and you’ll experience shared support in a relaxed environment.
Physical activity can help reduce falls, boost balance, and lift mood. It also supports better sleep, memory, and heart health—benefits that matter for PLWD and carers alike.
The Carers Support Service and Dementia Direct has delivered free, confidential care and services to unpaid carers across North and North East Lincolnshire for nearly 30 years. We offer peer groups, counselling, Keyworker support, benefits guidance, training, support for People Living with Dementia (PLWD) and wellbeing activities like Tai Chi and craft workshops.
These fitness sessions reinforce that support. They help maintain physical movement and create opportunities for carers to recharge, connect, and prioritise self-care.
When you attend, you also gain access to our wider services and caring community.
Booking in advance is required to confirm your place. To reserve a spot or learn more, call us on 01652 650585. You can also email info@carerssupportcentre.com.
