Core Sport is a department of an adult mental health charity called Core Arts based in Hackney, London. We use the power of sport and physical activity to help those with mild to severe and enduring mental health needs as part of people's mental health recovery plan. Not only do we offer a free 6 day a week programme with over 15 different sports on offer, we also run short course throughout the year and one-off sport specific trips.
We break down all barriers to enable our members to access these services; cost, equipment, clothing etc. We have a leave a diagnosis at the door policy and treat everyone as a person not as a diagnosis. We create a safe, friendly community that people can attend activities with like minded people.
These initiatives assist people experiencing mental health barriers, fulfill their potential to achieve their personal goals and aspirations and make a full contribution to society.
