Fairer Westminster

Sessions will take place every Saturday from 12:20 – 13:40pm at the Marylebone Cricket Club (MCC), Lord’s Cricket Ground, NW8 8QN, and are open to juniors of all abilities.

Squash is a fast-paced sport that helps young people develop fitness, agility, co-oridnation and reaction speed, whilst also building confidence, focus and resilience. It’s a great way for juniors to stay active, make friends and enjoy learning in a supportive environment.

Whether your child is picking up a racket for the first time or looking to improve their game, these sessions offer a fantastic opportunity to move, play and grow through sport.

Our volunteers make it happen

The run solely relies on our dedicated troop of 370 primarily local volunteers (and some volun-tourists from as far as Texas and Australia). They do everything from setting, to ensuring the safety of participants and managing, marshaling, time keeping and tail walking.

We want to take this opportunity to give a special, heartfelt thanks to a number of our volunteers who have volunteered with us 100 times! This includes David Phillipa, Jawaid, Florentina, Kathy, and Genevieve. Local Resident John May has volunteered a whooping 216 times! Now that’s what you call dedication.

Through this initiative we have also supported 18 young peopke with volunteering opportunities as part of the their Duke of Edward Award.

Community-led, partnership-driven

The Delivery Plan put communities at the centre. By working closely with residents, community organisations, health partners, schools and local businesses, ActiveWestminster will deliver activity opportunities shaped by local needs.

Tackling inequality, opening opportunities

Access to physical activity isn’t equal. The plan targets inequalities by focusing support when barriers are greatest, helping more people experience the physical, mental and social benefits of being active.
