Active Calderdale is running a project to get more local people in Todmorden engaged in physical activities. Four sporting activities have been identified in which people of varying levels of agility can take part. Active Calderdale will be bringing equipment to the session.

The one I think might be of most interest is Floor Curling, which is like the Curling on ice that you may have seen at the Winter Olympics, but with 'stones' that have runners so that they slide on a floor in the same steady way that a curling stone glides across an ice rink. Although you may have seen players crouching down to guide the stone on its way, the session will demonstrate how less flexible people can launch the stone from a standing position.

Other sports whose governing bodies support the initiative include indoor archery, squash and table tennis.

All members are invited to attend this free one hour taster session which will take place in the gym on the second floor.
