Energise Me is a charity that champions physical activity for all in Hampshire and the Isle of Wight. We are working hard to make it easier for everyone to move more. Our goal is to create a happier, healthier and stronger future for local people. We won’t rest until everyone has the confidence, support and opportunity to be active on their own terms. Physical activity transforms lives. Our work is helping people to reduce their risk of major illnesses and depression. With your help, we are enabling communities to thrive. But we still have a long way to go. We are one of 42 Active Partnerships who work with partners to create an active nation.

Move Momentum is an award-winning local charity based in Winchester, Hampshire that aims to make dance accessible to everyone. We provide inclusive and affordable dance classes for people who otherwise might not have the opportunity to enjoy the benefits of dance. We focus on providing weekly classes tailored for older adults, people with disabilities (including dedicated classes for wheelchair users), people with long-term health conditions, and young people facing barriers to accessing dance. We also offer online dance education and work across Hampshire to provide inclusive dance classes to SEN schools, care homes and other charities and community groups.
