GRIT: Safe Futures, a targeted diversionary and early-intervention programme for young people aged 10–18 in Bidston and St James, Wirral.

The project provides free, out-of-school-hours calisthenics sessions, mentoring, one-to-one support where needed, and youth leadership opportunities for young people who may be vulnerable to anti-social behaviour, unsafe peer influence, low confidence, social isolation or difficult circumstances at home.

This project is supported by the Violence Reduction Partnership, the Youth Empowerment Scheme, Community Foundation for Merseyside, CBE Electricals and Behind Bars Calisthenics Academy CIC.

The Move Together (SEND Family Sessions) Project deliver small-group physical activity sessions for children aged 5–12 with higher support needs (including autism, ADHD and dyspraxia), alongside active participation from parents/carers. Each session will be capped at eight children and delivered in a calm, predictable environment with a higher staff-to-child ratio, so children can feel safe, regulate, and take part at their own pace. Families are often let down by short-term or unsuitable provision; this project offers consistent access to sustainable provision.
