Rise Essex are excited to have started to deliver their adapted seated sports programme throughout North East Essex. These sessions are being enjoyed by the participants throughout the Colchester and Tendring districts.
Melvyn saw a Rise session in Wales in a care home and saw how much fun the participants were having and the physical and psychological benefits these sessions bring. It was evident there was a real synergy between his care business and what Rise do. A keen sportsman himself, he loved the idea that the sports had been adapted and were completely inclusive and could be enjoyed by anyone.
He is joined by Krissy Rice, the Operations Manager and Owen Thom as the Business Development Officer. Owen has a background in mentoring and delivering sports sessions to various schools and Institutions throughout Essex. Owen has been delivering the adapted sports sessions to Care Homes and Community centres in the Colchester and Tendring areas for nearly a year. Now the team plan to introduce Rise sessions in additional areas in Essex.
Our Activity Leads are at the heart of what we do – they deliver fantastic Rise sessions across Essex, bringing the joy of sports to so many people. Find out more about the day in the life of a Rise Activity Lead here…
