Eastleigh Borough Council “I would like to express my full support for Sprint-Start. I have worked alongside the company on a range of projects and have found them to be excellent. Overall I believe providers like Sprint-Start are part of the future for sports development and I look forward to working with them on future projects.” James Coney – Sports Development Officer, Eastleigh Borough Council		Healthy Start Workshops Introduction Healthy Start is a programme of workshop sessions run by Sprint-Start, aimed at young people at Primary, Junior or Secondary School. The purpose of Healthy Start is to assist schools in providing pupils with quality provision that is fun, educational and inspiring. We can work with class / year groups or pupils selected by the school. The group will benefit from the support of our coaches and also the foundation patron and Olympic Athlete and British 400m record holder, Iwan Thomas MBE. Sessions We can run Healthy Start to fit in with the needs of the school, whether this be holding a number of workshops during 1 school day or over a period of several weeks. The sessions can be held at the school or if preferred off site at Trojans Club, Eastleigh. We can cover physical activity, Cooking and healthy eating or a combination of the two. Aims and Objectives The aim of Healthy Start is to give pupils a positive sporting and lifestyle experience that will change their perception of sport, physical exercise and diet which can then be built upon back in their school environment by integrating back into lessons and other activities. Many young people find that sport is a great motivator and can have very positive impacts on both their academic, physical, mental and sociological development, although in some cases this needs a trigger, such as Healthy Start.
