New matchFIT Sessions On The Horizon

The provision formerly known as FIT BORO may have a new name, but the aim of MATCH FIT remains steadfastly the same.

The very popular fitness and nutrition-information classes will soon be playing out again on the concourses of the Riverside and in Skelton, East Cleveland.

Free of charge, Match Fit is a 12-week programme for men and women aged 35-65 (give or take a year or two).

A programme for the body and mind like no other. it has helped so many in recent years. As those who have participated know, the Riverside is a setting unlike any gym, while Skelton has proved to be a social occasion as much as a fitness session.

Both venues offer a welcoming and supportive environment with likeminded people. Our staff don’t judge, they advise and help. That’s maybe one of the reasons past programmes have proven so popular.

The first sessions are:

Tuesday May 7th 6-7.30 Riverside – Women

Wednesday 8th 5.30-7.00 – Skelton Civic Centre – Mixed

Monday May 13th 6-7.30 Riverside – Men

To sign up, or to find out more, e-mail enquiries@mfcfoundation.co.uk or ring 01642 757674 any time 9am and 5pm Monday to Friday.
