We are delighted to have Dawn Skelton as Chair of the Trust. Dawn is a Professor of Ageing and Health at Glasgow Caledonian University and also Director of Later Life Training (a not for profit training organisation). She volunteers, along with Sheona MacLennan, Diane Mailer and Fiona McGregor, and delivers a Strength and Balance class every Thursday from 2-3pm at the Crianlarich Hall. Suitable for anyone, with seated and standing options available, the class is free but we ask for a donation. Everyone is welcome. We thank Trust in the Park for sponsoring the hire of the hall and the refreshments after the class.
'Movement Snacking', what a great idea. A chance to do a wee bit of exercise now and again whenever it suits you. We have teamed up with Later Life Learning to provide a series of free, live online exercise sessions everyday of the year, including Christmas Day! And if you miss the live sessions, you can catch up with them on YouTube. You can find the sessions on their Facebook page here.
Later Life Training have also allowed us to provide a copy of their Activities for Daily Living, which provides a series of gentle exercises that should suit everyone. You can do them indoors or outdoors, and at your own pace. Please find a link to the pdf here , which you can download and/or print.
