We are trying to encourage people to follow our page on Facebook (Carers Trust Heart of England) to keep up to date with the help, advice and practical and emotional support the charity can offer those caring for loved ones in Coventry and Warwickshire. If any carers would be interested in receiving a free carers assessment/wellbeing check to support their own health and wellbeing the info on how to do so is included in the post – hopefully this will be helpful. Many thanks Christine.

Our friends at SimplyhealthUK are giving away another unforgettable experience for a child aged 5-12 from your organisation (or your family) to be a virtual mascot for the England’s final game of the Women’s Six Nations Championship on Saturday 24th April.
One lucky winner will receive England match kit and feature in a video for England Rugby social media and on the match day Big Screen, to motivate the Red Roses to win their 3rd consecutive Six Nations – all from the comfort of their own home!
Please share with parents from across your organisation and you are allowed to enter your own child(ren) too!
To be in with a chance to win this incredible prize, apply here by 10am, Wednesday 7th April.

We will be hosting a Christmas Party on Zoom on Wednesday 23rd December at 6pm. We have a Christmas Quiz to start things off. We know this can’t replace being able to go swimming, but hopefully this will give us a chance to all catch up after what has been a difficult year. Feel free to wear your Christmas jumpers and bring a mince pie to eat! We might even sing some Christmas carols too!
If you would like an invite sending via email, with the meeting details on, please let Marie know, either via Facebook or marieclarke5@btinternet.com
Hope to see you there!

Hi all, message from Sported’s Disability lead. Please see message from Disability Rights UK below. Please send onto any members who you think might be interested in this opportunity.
We want to make a big effort to ensure that any messages and influencing we do on the upcoming government strategy for disabled people are coming directly from disabled people. We are currently looking to hear from individuals who have anything to say about their experience of life.
We are asking disabled people to tell us what matters to them by emailing webelong@disabilityrightsuk.org. People can also send us audio or video of you talking about the things that matters to them.

Following discussions with the leisure centre management, to discuss if our club will be able to reopen, whilst adhering to social distancing measures and keeping our members, volunteers and staff safe, it has been agreed that when the leisure centre next review and update their timetable, there will be a 50 minute swim (main pool only) from 6pm on a Friday evening for disabled swimmers. This will be an individual lane swim, similar to the public arrangements with only 3 lanes being used. Swimmers need to be able to swim continuously for several lengths and preferably for the duration of their swim. For the latest information on changing and showers please refer to the Everyone Active website.Please keep checking the website for the latest updates. We do hope to be able to welcome all swimmers back soon.

We have received this letter from NASCH with their latest news update.
Dear Secretary,
As you will appreciate, with swimming pools closed due to the pandemic, none of our Clubs have been operating since lockdown in March. Nobody has been able to swim and It does not appear that the pools will be open any time soon. This is very disappointing for us all, especially the swimmers.
The NASCH Committee have discussed the situation and have decided that there would be no time for our swimmers to get ready to take part in Club or Regional selection for our Championship Gala, even when the pools reopen. They have, therefore, with regret, decided not to hold the Championship Gala this year.
We have, therefore, written to cancel our booking at Newbold Comyn Leisure Centre on 7th November 2020.
We are, however, booking the pool for Saturday, 6thNovember 2021 when hopefully our NASCH Championships will take place in 2021. Whilst writing I can let you know that Woodlarks Camp has been booked for Saturday 22nd to 29th May 2021. We hope to see you at both events.
Best wishes,
Rosemary O’Leary
