In the last year, Step Forward With Lewis CIC has provided free strength and balance classes in Northamptonshire to those who have mobility and flexibility issues, and are at risk of falls, We've also provided specialist classes for those with cancer and Parkinson's. We've put on six general strength and balance classes per week for the past five months for older people who are at risk of falls, or are more vulnerable - including those with Parkinson's, heart conditions, dementia, cancer, and other serious conditions. These classes improve people's fitness, strength, balance, flexibility and confidence. Michelle Lewis is a qualified instructor, who can teach later life fitness and help people remain independent for longer. Clinic trials have proven that the Otago programme, which Michelle is trained in, leads to a reduction in the number of falls suffered by those taking part in classes, with the severity of falls suffered also reduced. As well as having a positive impact on those attending sessions, our work helps ease pressure on the NHS as people are having less falls and attending their GP/A&E less often. We believe in building community, encouraging clients to come for a coffee or tea after sessions, facilitating friendships, and we even saw two members get married!
As of 30 April 2026, Step Forward With Lewis CIC had five directors, two of whom (Michelle and Craig Lewis) have been active for the whole year. The other three (Samantha Gee, Carole Cuthbertson and Christine Monk) joined the organisation as it continued to grow. Please note that since 30 April 2026, Samantha Gee, Carole Cuthbertson and Christine Monk have resigned as directors of Step Forward With Lewis CIC, and Wayne Chalmers and Laura Roberts have been appointed. We operate in a continual state of consultation with all of our directors, and also hold regular meetings to discuss all matters pertaining to the CIC. These discussions/consultations have resulted in applications for funding being submitted to local businesses (almost £1,000 raised already to put classes on for free), increased collaboration with other local groups/charitable organisations, and publicity ideas.
