#Inclusivecrediton feels that Taiko Beat

#inclusivecrediton Saturday Sessions began at Lords Meadow Leisure Centre on the Saturday just gone! Thanks to everyone who came and took part in the first session of this exciting new project.

22 of us learnt a few rugby skills, played table tennis and football, spent a very energetic hour Taiko Drumming (if you live in Crediton we do hope you heard us!). It was a brilliant afternoon - looking forward to next Saturday. Why not come and join us?

The #inclusivecrediton sessions will be held each Saturday between 2 and 4pm. 

For the next eight weeks the session will include a facilitated hour of Taiko Drumming courtesy of Taiko Journey. After that it'll be time to break out your dancing shoes.

Full details about #inclusivecrediton Saturday sessions will be displayed on our notice board at the  leisure centre and on the web sites of Turning tides, Mid Devon Leisure and Active Devon.

#Inclusivecrediton is a two year collaborative initiative between Active Devon, Mid Devon Leisure, the Turning Tides Project, Living Options and Upstream. It aims to create an inclusive environment through the provision of activities specifically for people with additional needs, investing in the development of facilitators, trainers and staff involved. All #inclusivecrediton project Saturday sessions will cost £2.50 per person (support workers go free) making it affordable and accessible to all. Participants in #InclusiveCrediton and Turning Tides Project sessions will be given a level three Zest Card, by Mid Devon leisure and can use this access other activities, including swimming, at a concessionary rate.
