North Tipperary Traveller Teen Fit Programme
This programme aims to develop and deliver a weekly physical activity and healthy lifestyle programme for young travellers between the ages of 8-18 in Littleton to enable them to access sport. The objective is to focus on sports that this target group would not normally participate in, to engage with young travellers while supporting them to develop healthy habits, self esteem and positivie attitudes towards their physical health. NTSP will work in partnership with North Tipperary Young Travellers Project, Barnardos, the Littleton Residents Association and the local schools to deliver this project. On completion, the young travellers will have carried out a 10 week physical activity and healthy lifestyles programme experiencing a selection of sporting activities, including swimming, self defence, hip hop and the use of a gym, which they would not normally become involved in. |

Dads n' Lads
The Dads n' Lads hillwalking programme has just finished and was a great success. It ran over 8 weeks with 4 walks, 3 of the walks were in Upperchurch and 1 in Kilcommon. Everybody seemed to enjoy it and a quote from one of the Dads just sums it all up “out in the fresh air getting some exercise and spending time with your son, sure you couldn’t spend a Saturday any better”.
Dads n' Lads Hillwalking dates for 2013 will be announced shortly. |
