- Activities keep people connected and create a sense of being part of a big family.
- Joining activities helps to avoid loneliness and isolation.
‘I found this [Tai Chi] class very calming, I felt in good hands and am very grateful to the Chinese community of Peterborough for opening their arms out to the wider community in helping us get better, healthier, showing us a great and ancient skill and sharing knowledge of energy and movement in order we can help ourselves stay healthier.’
