We like to ensure that (GSI) has a mixture of ages and a wide variety of activities. We also offer opportunities for people to set up their own different groups. Giving them help where necessary, whether it be financial with advertising or general help and support. These are some of the groups we currently have, Bollywood, Children’s badminton coaching, Alexander Technique sessions and table tennis coaching for Children.
Groups:
MP Hall/small hall – Weight watchers uses the hall also Slimming World is still very busy and runs twice a week.
Bollywood, Alternative therapy groups, tutoring and church groups are frequent users of the halls.
Table tennis as always very busy with club nights. More children have started playing table tennis.
Badminton is as always very popular, we also have children’s badminton coaching twice a week. There is a waiting list for these sessions.
Some of the other groups running at GSI are: Zumba, Karate, Short Mat Bowls, Bridge, Church groups, Yoga and Pilates.
In March we hired both function halls to a health service on behalf of the NHS for an Aortic Aneurysm screening program. As part of our charity donations we gave them the evening and morning set up for free and the remaining session at a discounted rate. The screening was a great success, they have requested to use our facilities again for other screening programmes.
NCT will also be using our facilities again later in the year.
