New opportunities are always exciting and a touch terrifying too, but unless we feel the nerves, we won’t continue to grow. One advert for a job I didn’t have the qualifications for, opened the door to these new beginnings and I feel very blessed .

I want to wish you all a very healthy and happy 2026 and I’m looking forward to starting Barre again next week! My body certainly needs it! Not so sure about Aqua aerobics ( it’s blooming hard work and hot) but a good cardio workout for sure. I’m excited about The Lifestyle Medicine Course that I’ll be involved in and looking forward to helping more people improve their health ( me included) so enjoy yourself whatever your doing and I look forward to seeing you in the new year x

So practicing STOTT Pilates before I start the course later in the year whilst looking after a clients dog isn’t the wisest plan ( I know I said never again would I learn anything else , but this will go really well with Barre and I personally need and love a challenge) roll on 2026!

Wishing you all a very merry Christmas .

Thank you for all your support, fun, friendship and encouragement. I love seeing how far you’ve come over the last few years and I look forward to 2026 !

Brilliant

Planning approval granted for new West Wickham Leisure Centre.

Construction of the new West Wickham Leisure Centre will get underway in the coming weeks after the application was unanimously approved at Development Control Committee on 27 November.

The proposals include a gym that is 40 per cent larger than the previous one, a competition-length swimming pool, changing rooms, a new reception area and a café. The proposed design for the new leisure facility features a red brick exterior.

Planning approval follows the recent completion of demolition works of the former leisure centre. It was beyond economic repair after structural issues were identified. The demolition progressed on an advanced schedule to ensure the new centre is built as soon as possible. The learner pool was not included in the demolition and is being refurbished. The £22m project will see a new leisure centre delivered in West Wickham and is expected to reopen in early 2028.

Councillor Alexa Michael, Chairman of Development Control Committee, said: “This is a high-quality application, with an attractive design inspired by the newly reopened West Wickham Library. I was delighted that the Committee could unanimously approve the application, which will significantly enhance the borough’s leisure provision. I am sure the new leisure centre will be much enjoyed by local residents once it reopens.”

Councillor Yvonne Bear, Executive Councillor for Renewal, Recreation and Housing, said: “This is welcome news that allows the council to press ahead with works on site to deliver this new leisure centre for West Wickham and the wider borough. We have been moving at pace to get to this stage as we needed to move ahead with the rebuild. This is a significant investment from the council which we have prioritised because we know how important the centre and pool is to residents. It will ensure provision is available long into the future.”

The Development Control Committee resolved to grant planning permission subject to the prior completion of a legal agreement.

We are so pleased to have been awarded site of the month for our MSK hubs ESCAPE-pain. Our MSK hubs provide exercise, rehabilitation and wellbeing support to help people maintain mobility and reduce pain, as well as improve the health of patients before and after surgery.

Musculoskeletal conditions are the primary cause of disability among older adults, with more than 20 million people in the UK experiencing related problems, such as arthritis, back or knee ache and chronic pain.

This fantastic programme is an alternative to surgery for the estimated one million people who are waiting for NHS orthopaedic treatments. Our community describe first-hand, positive experiences of the ESCAPE-Pain programme including becoming more confident in their ability to use exercise as a self-management strategy.

Our team of experts who deliver the programme understand that, when struggling with chronic pain, exercise can sometimes seem scary, as people can worry it might cause more damage. However, targeted exercises led by our health experts can help alleviate symptoms instead.

I need to go to bed, but this little one is snoring her head off and don’t want to wake her to go in the garden!

Never did I imagine that I’d love teaching aqua aerobics quite as much as I do! I love teaching Barre , don’t get me wrong, but it’s a different vibe entirely.

I love making it challenging and I love it when they sing out loud. It’s like a pool party!

All we need now is the 🍹 to go with it 🌊
