October Fit & Fed
Despite the never ending rain, there were smiles all around for 54 young people that joined us each day this October half term.
A special thanks to our regular partners Nucleus Arts, Olympia Boxing, Sport On Your Doorstep, and to Mrs Bakers Medway Theatre Company for the extracurricular activities they provided.
⛵ Aboard the Edith May
Aboard the Edith May
We were delighted to be invited on the Thames sailing barge Edith May with some of our partnership members, their friends and family.
All within an hour, we explored the history of Thames barges, how to operate the vessel and began sailing towards the Historic Dockyard Chatham.
Thank you to Medway Plus for the invitation and to Tiller & Wheel for being accommodating and insightful hosts.
