Foundation Friends is Notts County Foundation’s latest addition to the circuit of groups and activities. Occurring every Saturday morning from 10AM – 12PM at Portland Centre, it is a multi-sport wellbeing session for people of all abilities. The session is aimed at people wanting to get active and make friends and gives the participants a place to continue their wellbeing journey. The session consists of a variety of sports, including Badminton and Table Tennis. The sessions will also have access to the Portland Centre’s fitness suites, as well as a social aspect where members can have a hot refreshment and conversation with other members. The sessions are run on a pay as you go basis, so there is no sign-up fee or long-standing payment requirement. The weekly price to join is £2.50 for Under 16’s and £4 for adults. Participants will also get a Foundation Friends loyalty card, which after 9 paid sessions, they will get the 10th free! This loyalty card will be able to be used at the sponsor venue Trent Navigation to get a discount on food and drink too! Trent Navigation have partnered with Notts County Foundation on this programme to reflect their updated brand image of being a wholesome, family-friendly organisation with home-cooked food. Participants are encouraged to visit Trent Navigation after their Foundation Friends session!
Ashley Dilks, Group Marketing Manager at Great Northern Groups, who are the operators of Trent Navigation said: “Trent Navigation in is proud to be working with the Notts County Foundation. Social venues play a vital role in promoting wellbeing and social cohesion by providing a safe and welcoming space for all individuals to connect with others, engage in meaningful conversations, and participate in community events. They also offer a sense of belonging and community spirit, which can help to reduce social isolation and promote mental and emotional wellbeing and we are excited to welcome members of Foundation Friends!”
