Recipient Org: Description Tone Leisure is a Not for Profit Leisure Trust and Social Enterprise; our mission is “to improve community activity, health and well-being”. We are dedicated to improving the health and well-being of communities by encouraging active participation for everyone, providing affordable and accessible services, to reduce health inequalities, particularly in areas of high social need and those areas of a rural nature. Tone Leisure’s principal area of business activity is leisure facility management on behalf of local authorities In Taunton Deane, South Hams and North Somerset. This includes management of indoor and outdoor sports facilities, swimming pools, sports halls, health and fitness facilities, along with sports, play and health development services. We currently manage contracts for six leisure facilities in Taunton Deane and four facilities in South Hams, both with sport, play and health development services included, and one in North Somerset. Our development services, provide a wide range of outreach support in providing health physical activity opportunities in local communities, including our large Walking for Health programme. These programmes include opportunities, for all those living in areas of high deprivation such as Halcon, and Lyngford. VIBE runs at Wellsprings Leisure Centre, Cheddon Road, which is situated behind Taunton Academy in the Pyrland ward of North Taunton and has been running regularly on a Friday evening, since 2004, originally set up and supported by Tone staff and Somerset Youth Workers. The programme is now totally supported by Tone Leisure and has received no external funding in the past 2 years. The programme has seen a significant rise in numbers during the later part of 2015 and attracts on average 75-80 young people aged from 11 - 16, per week, with maximum numbers since Christmas 2015 at 115. Our total participation figures for 2015 were 2,183. With 1295 of those being male, and 888 female. Throughout 2015 the growth of VIBE, has been phenomenal, and this has brought with it a challenge in providing sufficient opportunities for everyone to participate in activity, and this application will enable us to provide additional equipment to provide a diverse and new range of activities, along with additional equipment for the activities which are most popular eg parcor. In 2015, saw the first increase in price bringing it to £2 for the 2 hour session, making it very affordable. There is flexibility for those that are experiencing financial hardship to receive a free or further discounted rate. In December 2016 Tone Leisure will merge with GLL (Greenwich Leisure) who are also a charitable leisure trust and have similar charitable aims and values as Tone. We have been given assurance that Vibe will continue to run and that any equipment purchased with this grant for VIBE will be available for the group and maintained and safely stored in the same way.
