Join your SVI friends at one or more of our healthy lifestyle activities. We’ve got exercise indoors and outdoors, both gentle and more strenuous depending on what you feel like. These sessions will help you get fit and improve your health. With support on hand if you need it.
(Please note: If you are an SVI member who doesn’t live in Sandwell, you will have to pay Portway Lifestyle Centre to attend any of the sessions that take place there. You may be entitled to an annual concession card, costing £15, if you are on a disability benefit, such as PIP. This will give you a 50% reduction on the session charge. )
