A Little will go a long way
They are a direct response to the dated, assumptive approach often taken to engaging older adults with exercise and social activities. As the demographics that make up our communities change, our approach should too - in line with person centred, culturally sensitive care. Older people deserve activities which resonate with their life experiences.
They are a social enterprise founded on Charlie Blair’s experiences as a professional dancer, granddaughter, homeless teenager and a carer for older people.
Through their fun, forward thinking sessions, they aim to:
- reduce feelings of loneliness and social isolation
- improve/ prevent the deterioration of physical and mental health
- bridge generational gaps
By promoting the positive impact of Hip Hop Dance on physical health, cognitive function and emotional well being, they aim to challenge stereotypes and break down barriers associated with growing older
Since launching in 2018, they have engaged over 8000 people across a multitude of care and community settings
