16-25 PROGRAMME
What is FUNdamentals 16-25?
FUNdamentals 16-25 is a free, 12-week programme offering weekly exercises designed to help young people build confidence, routine and a positive relationship with physical activity.
Each week offers two session options:
A FUNdamentals multisport session
Following our FUNdamentals DNA -
fun, inclusive, supportive environment
focused on building movement skills through a range of activities.
A chair-based exercise (Sit Strong) session
Following our Sit Strong principles:
supportive, accessible
focused on building mobility, strength and confidence through movement.
Participants sign up for the full 12 weeks so they can experience real consistency, progress and routine, not just one-off sessions. They can choose to attend one session or both, depending on their interests, needs and confidence.
Who's it for?
Our programme is for young people aged 16-25 with learning disabilities who want to move more, build confidence and enjoy being active in a supportive and welcoming environment.
We know that feeling comfortable and supported makes a huge difference. That's why we actively encourage support workers and family members to get involved.
By joining the sessions, supporters can help young people feel more confident, stay engaged and enjoy the experience together.
This shared approach helps to:
-
Build stronger relationships and trust
-
Boost confidence and motivation
-
Create positive, active experiences that continue outside the sessions
Whether you're a young person looking to get more active, or a parent, carer or support working wanting to take part alongside someone you support - you're welcome here.
Why 12 weeks?
Twelve weeks gives participants the time and space to feel comfortable, build confidence and develop positive movement habits - at their own pace.
Getting started
Time to settle in, get familiar with sessions and feel supported
Building confidence
Consistency helps confidence grow through routine and repetition
Creating lasting habits
Progress is recognised and positive movement continues beyond the programme
To mark progress and recognise achievements, celebration events are built into the programme - giving participants the chance to celebrate their wins, reflect on their journey and feel proud of the positive changes they've made.
FUNdamentals 16-25 is about more than exercise - it's about creating meaningful, enjoyable movement that lasts.
