"Would you like to make a profound difference in the lives of older adults and those living with dementia and other forms of cognitive impairment? Look no further than Love to Move, a groundbreaking seated movement programme developed by the British Gymnastics Foundation. Rooted in gymnastics principles, Love to Move offers a unique approach that not only promotes physical health but also enhances cognitive function and fosters social engagement.

Since 2015, the Team at British Gymnastics Foundation has been researching, developing and delivering the Love to Move programme, and with an education course which has trained over 1,100 Love to Move deliverers, Love to Move is the largest and most successful programme of its kind in the UK; transforming the lives of older people all over the country and beyond.

Based on scientific evidence and targeting a group and societal issue often not prioritised, Love to Move engages participants with simple hand movements set to music. These simple gymnastics movements are based on bilaterally asymmetrical movement patterns and coordination exercises. They help stimulate both sides of the brain, contributing to improvements in participants’ memory, speech, strength, flexibility mobility, cognition, and social engagement, empowering individuals to carry out daily activities more independently. Above all, the programme is fun!

This webinar will give you a detailed insight into the Love to Move programme and share lessons in how to successfully engage and improve the lives of older adults in your communities.
