Saturday 27th July - Sunday 28th July 2013
Leicester City Council Parks Service is hosting an innovative weekend of sport and physical activity to build on the success of last year's Park Active two week festival that took place in the countdown to the Olympics.
Parks Active will see a whole host of taster activities from Tai Chi, Family Rounders, Story Telling Walks, Fencing and Archery taster sessions and much more, including canoeing on the river soar.
Activities are designed to encourage a healthy and active lifestyle for all age groups and are aimed at getting fitness novices to take the plunge and get active in their local park with a range of aerobic based exercise activities of relatively low intensity.
Parks Active offers something for everybody with 12 different taster sessions taking place on different parks, gardens, green open spaces and Leicester's Riverside across the city. We have tried to make all activities as inclusive as possible, please let us know if you require any extra support.
All events must be pre-booked to avoid disappointment so please call the Sport on Parks Team on 0116 2333023 or email sportonparks@leicester.gov.uk giving them the event details you want to participate in.
