Community responds to Covid-19

As a response to the Coronavirus pandemic sweeping the globe, several TWCP Resident Steering Group members got together to discuss a community response for their local community. They wanted to bring people together and keep them active and engaged despite the lockdown. They came up with a programme of weekly posts and livestreams on Zoom, Instagram and Facebook Live.

Using their skills and passions to teach, inspire, support and connect the local community. Most importantly, they wanted the sessions to be fun and to bring people together to keep them feeling happy and positive!

All of the sessions are led by local residents and take place throughout the week
