It’s National Fitness Day, but if the word ‘fitness’ makes your blood run cold, you’re not alone.

BUT, if you find the right thing for you a fitness class can be amazing. Full of laughs, friendship and feeling good about yourself. No grunting, mirrors or competition.

So why not try something new that brings in all those things. We run Nordic walking classes and Women’s Strength indoor classes - both very ‘do-able’ for beginners - and we’d love you to join us.

Call Ros for an informal chat about either class on 07886885213 or visit our websites:

We’re not Steve Austin, but we can help rebuild you. Fact.

A film celebrating our connection with the natural world

We’ve been invited to share this with our community, and we thought it sounded really interesting.

Super Nature is a new feature documentary bringing together stories from 40+ filmmakers, artists and storytellers across 25 countries, exploring our relationship with the more-than-human world and the places we know and love.

There’s a special preview screening at the Watershed Bristol on 27 August, followed by a Q&A with director Ed Sayers.

🌿 If you love being outdoors, discovering local places and thinking a little differently about the natural world, this could be one to look out for.

🎟️ Tickets and details: https://www.supernature-film.co.uk/tickets/

They’re also inviting people to share their favourite local walks, wildlife and places as part of the tour — so we’d love to hear yours too! 🌳

Watch the trailer, find screenings & book tickets for SUPER NATURE on the official site. In cinemas 4 September 2026 brought to you by BFI. Directed by: Ed Sayers.
