Please show your support for the movement for good and please nominate us!
You can make a difference. We’re not asking for money, or any real time, just your nomination of a
registered charity, not-for-profit organisation, or community interest company in the UK, Republic of Ireland,
Channel Islands or Isle of Man. Anyone can nominate and that one act could potentially mean an
extra £1,000 to those trying to make a difference. The more nominations a charity receives,
the greater their chance of winning, so once you’ve done your part, spread the word and make it a movement!

Our fantastic volunteer Louise has been fundraising for our ‘Youth Club for Older People- PenActive’ and has been given a donation from the brilliant Huntsman pub’s ‘Jar on the Bar’ of £65, which will be put towards paying for coaches to run different sessions each week.
Our PenActive group is a friendly session every Tuesday from 1:30-3:30pm which includes time to socialise with a cuppa and a snack as well as access to different sports facilities/sessions weekly. The group is aimed at helping those aged 60+ to keep fit and active as well as making friends. Every week we offer different activities which might be table tennis/badminton/gym one week, or Pilates, Zumba, Chair Fitness, Walking Football, etc another week! Why not ‘like’ our ‘Penactive’ page on facebook to be kept up to date with what’s coming up! The session costs £3 per person which includes a drink and biscuits etc.
Massive thank you to landlady Sam and the Huntsman team! The Huntsman is a fantastic local real ale pub and community venue just along the road from us in Thurlstone, with live music and delicious home made food served on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Sundays- if you haven’t been before, it’s definitely worth a trip! We honestly can’t think of where you can find a better pie in the area!
