HIVE Directory: Your Emotional Well-Being

Proudly sponsored by Powder Monkey Brewing Co Walking football is a slower-paced version of the beautiful game we all love to play and watch, designed to make football accessible to everyone, regardless of age or fitness level. Whether you’re a seasoned player or new to the sport, walking football offers a fantastic opportunity to stay active and enjoy the camaraderie of team play, all without the intensity of a full-speed match.

The game is small-sided, with no running (on or off the ball), very little contact and kick-ins instead of throw-ins. With less stress on the body and no real sudden change of direction or movements, the game allows the participants to play without apprehension.

Older people in particular have seen many benefits, including lower heart rate and blood pressure, less fat, more muscle and more mobility.

As well as offering health benefits, Walking Football offers social benefits – the opportunity for participants to meet new people, prevent isolation and create interaction for individuals and small groups.

It’s almost impossible not to feel good when we’re walking outdoors – it’s a natural mood-booster! And the great news is we don’t need to walk far or fast to feel its effects on our health and wellbeing. Simply getting out is a tonic for our minds and bodies, and it can be sociable too.

Almost all of us can manage a stroll, and Ramblers Wellbeing Walks make it easier to start walking and stay active. And you’ll certainly never be short of good company. Join us on our walks listed on our website, you can just turn up on the day and our welcoming leaders will help you to register to the walks. If you would like to discuss any information further, please call or email below and we will get back to you about the walks. Ramblers wellbeing Walks are a volunteer based scheme, offering free socialable led walks in Portsmouth. This scheme is run jointly by Portsmouth City Council and The Ramblers.

Empowering Young People for a Better Future

We are a children and young people's charity that supports children, young people and their families through a range of services. We focus our activities on:
Prevention - street and centre-based youth work with children and young people
Targeted support - one to one and group work for children and young people who, for whatever reason, need more focused support including through alternative provision using nature-based learning to engage young people who may struggle in the school environment.
Progression Opportunities - employability and social action projects.

We also work with families with children whose behaviour challenges through our NVR - Families Together Programme. The programme focuses on supporting parent/carers to break the cycle of challenging behaviours whilst building positive relationships within the family unit. Each week will focus on a different topic, including de-escalation, parental presence, emotions and how to regulate them, unmet needs, supporter systems and applying learning.
