We worked with Drink Wise Age Well and Age UK to provide partner dance classes within a community setting to help people with age or drink related issues.

There is an increase in people aged over 50 who are turning to alcohol. Drink Wise Age Well and Dancing for Health are collaborated to encourage this group of people to take up a social activity like partner dancing within their local community. Our aim was to improve their health, their relationships, either personal or social and also potentially boost energy levels and self confidence.

The classes engaged them in a new, fun and interesting hobby that initiates socialising without alcohol in a group activity with others aged over 50 who may also be over coming or facing similar difficulties to themselves.
