This Girl Can Disney Dance-Alongs

This Girl Can have partnered with Disney to create some Disney inspired dance routines you can do together as a family at home! You can learn their moves or put your own spin on their routines. At the end of the day, it's about breaking a sweat while having a bit of fun.

This Girl Can Festival Videos

Our Second This Girl Can Festival took place during This Girl Can Week (12-19th June 2021) and this year, we took the event virtual!

The event gave girls across Wiltshire and Swindon the chance to try something new and get active, by taking part in 3 non-traditional activities, specifically designed to encourage female participation in physical activity.

The Festival is all about getting your hear rate up, and having fun whilst doing it!

We have made all of the videos from the Festival available on our YouTube Channel, so you can try them at home whenever you like!

Take a look at the video below for a taster of what you can get involved in.

Family Quiz Walks

Following on from the very successful Beat the Street programmes, our partners have a few quiz trails for you to try if you live in Swindon or Trowbridge.

These fun trails walk you through your local area looking for clues in the features and buildings around you. It is a great way to get the whole family out in the fresh air, giving children the opportunity to stay engaged and maybe learn a little on the way. Click on the area below to open a pdf version of the trail:
