Did you know??? It is recommended that adults do 30 mins of moderate activity 5 times a week.  It doesn’t have to be hard work – you can have fun at one of our weekly groups for example Line Dancing, Solo Salsa and Sequence Dancing.

All of our classes are supervised by fully qualified Leaders and Instructors, most groups have a friendly Age Concern – Fit as a Fiddle volunteer (Senior Health Mentor) to greet and guide you

Are you getting enough?? Fruit and veg. - eat 5 portions every day!  We hold healthy eating and tasting sessions on a regular basis


Fit as a Fiddle host regular health awareness events in and around Darlington where people find out more about health issues such as Diabetes, Oral Health, Blood Pressure and much more.
