Active children are happy and healthy children. We are here to help young people increase and sustain their activity levels whilst having fun!
The number of overweight schoolchildren in the UK is almost two million, of which about 700,000 are obese, according to a recent study - with over 25% of girls and 20% of boys are overweight.
With fewer and fewer playing fields in the UK, in comparison to ten or twenty years ago, British children are becoming less physically active at school. Add to this the change in eating habits among young children and the reasons for this growing childhood obesity problem becomes evident.
British children are eating more and more of the wrong foods and doing less and less exercise.
The number of hours children spend either watching TV or sitting in front of some kind of screen at home has increased.
Active Kids are dedicated to reversing this dangerous trend.
Our programs and services empower youngsters by helping them acquire the skills, confidence and positive self-image needed to become healthy young adults.
We are committed to nurturing children, treating them with understanding and positive reinforcement, maintaining a supportive and noncompetitive atmosphere, and making learning fun and exciting.
We are coming soon to Newton-le-Willows, so register your interest today!
