These low impact exercise classes are designed for older adults. All exercises can be performed seated or standing and can be adapted to suit individual needs. We keep moving and have fun.
These classes can improve balance, helping to prevent falls; improve strength to help you stay independent; improve cognitive function; improve your mood, as exercise produces a happy hormone; gives you more energy!

As this is assisted living accommodation, you need to buzz to get in, but if I know a new person is attending, I can look out for them and let them in, as the manager isn’t always around to open the door.
Although there is a car park at Harrow Court, it is nearly always full. There is lots of on street parking though.

Either park in spaces outside the building or in a “v” for visitor space anywhere else.This is assisted living accommodation but the door is always open. If I know someone new is coming I always ask them to wait just inside the door, so I can show them where to go.
