Book a place on our SEN October half term camp! 🏓

We had such a good time over the summer with sports sessions we ran at Moulsecoomb Primary School that we’ve decided to run a bigger, better version this half term.

Five organisations will be on site Monday 26th to Friday 30th October from 10am to 3pm delivering a series of fun 45 sessions for children and young people aged 7 to 18. Everyone takes part in all the activities. This time, it’s sport and more.

Taking part will be:

Brighton Table Tennis Club
VYD Football
Nam Yang Martial Arts
Moulsecoomb Forest Garden – outdoor skills
Amazonas Arts – learn capoeira a combination of dance, music and acrobatics

To book please fill out this form and we’ll book your child or children in for as many days as you want.

Book now!

A Creative Collaboration ⛪

Community collaboration in the city has taken a creative step forward both because and in spite of Covid. Two Methodist churches, one in Brighton and one in Hove, have teamed up with Brighton Table Tennis Club to offer their currently underused spaces in the churches so that BTTC can provide social but safe outreach table tennis sessions for the local communities, in addition to the ongoing programme at the club’s base in Kemptown.

All three partners, Hove Methodist Church, Stanford Avenue Methodist Church and BTTC are really enthusiastic about being able to offer a rare opportunity for small ‘bubbles’ of people to come together for exercise and interaction. Known to be one of the most accessible and exciting sports, helping both physical and mental agility for all ages, these coached sessions are intended to be a happy antidote to inactivity and the game is perfectly suited for the social distancing required at this time.

Tim Holtam, BTTC’s Director said “We are always looking for interesting opportunities and in conversation with our good friends at Gig Buddies, this possibility of sharing space came through their networks. We are all absolutely committed to building up communities and this is a great chance to work innovatively in new partnerships across Brighton and Hove.”
