We would urge schools to place PE, physical activity and sport at the heart of their planning following the long year children have faced in lockdown. Through our work at Full of Beans, we have seen children who haven't just been affected physically but socially and emotionally as well. Ninety percent of parents reported they were worried that their children's activity dropped "dramatically" during this time. We support the Good School Guide in promoting #PRIORITSEPE alongside the amazing Sharron Davies MBE. Parents can also play a part outside of school. It's so important children have FUN and enjoy how they move their bodies and they will need to experience a variety of activities for them to be able to choose which they enjoy the most. For some, it maybe doing treasure hunts while on a dog walk, challenging their family on the monkey bars in the park, rock climbing, dance class or trying something brand new like joining a local footy team or gymnastics club with some friends. It is GREAT news that this coming week sees sports clubs opening up again and after school clubs can resume so ask for a trial if your child is nervous or unsure. Full of Beans clubs can be booked by clicking HERE. I think we all know how GREAT you feel after a class, bike ride, yoga or a run etc when endorphins have been released and that's what I want children to experience so they fall in love with that amazing feeling! Physical activity is also great for their social development and given we've been locked up and prevented for seeing people for a year, this is high on my list for all children right now. The graphic below shows just some of the benefits of being active and these aren't just for now but will help children for the rest of their lives - what better gift can we give them and I don't think there's been a better time to start. Parents - if you are struggling to know where to start, we can help you! Just give us a ring or send an email and we would be happy to give you some ideas.

Schools - we can support you to improve your curriculum PE, physical activity and school sport as well as active playgrounds, self-development and well-being programmes.

RELEASE DATE : 26.1.21 Merseyside based Full of Beans Children’s Fitness & Sports Coaching gets a Twitter boost from Theo Paphitis and becomes a winner of his #SBS competition . Merseyside based children’s’ fitness and coaching company, Full of Beans has received a business boost from retail entrepreneur, Theo Paphitis. Yesterday, company director, Nicky Adams tweeted Theo about her business during ‘Small Business Sunday’ and was one of six weekly winners to gain a retweet by Theo to his 500,000 Twitter followers. #SBS is a lifeline to many small businesses who are maintaining consistency and viability during turbulent economic times and the helping hand from magnates such as Theo Paphitis is an amazing accolade for the Merseyside based company. Business and retail entrepreneur, Theo Paphitis, who still considers himself a ‘shopkeeper at heart’, has re‐tweeted Nicky Adams’s message to his substantial following and as a result, www.fullofbeansfitness.co.uk and their twitter account, within an hour has received a major boost to their traffic. Full of Beans will also be profiled on the #SBS website (www.theopaphitissbs.com) that is exclusive to all Small Business Sunday winners. Nicky Adams said ”With the current situation in all schools, reverting to online learning, never has physical education and the link to mental health and well-being been more important; here at ‘Fullof Beans’ we offer the antidote to screen fatigue. Full of Beans programmes such as Super Beans, Mini Mermaids and Young Tritons are proven to improve the lives of the children we work with and we are hoping that the support from #SBS will enable us to reach more children by informing schools, teachers and families about what we do. The overall well-being of all children is always at the centre of what we do and is crucial during these times and we are grateful that Theo has recognised the work we are doing, here in the North-west.” Small business champion and Ryman Stationery , Robert Dyas and Boux Avenue Chairman, Theo Paphitis, said: “We are thrilled to welcome new #SBS members every week and highlight just how important it is to support our small businesses here in the UK. My vision is that everyone who has ever won an #SBS re-tweet from me becomes part of a friendly club; like-minded individuals who can share successes and learnings. The website will also give a valuable profile to the winners chosen and I wish Full of Beans every success. Anyone looking for a re‐tweet from Theo should tweet him about their business on Sunday between 5 PM and 7.30 PM and include the hashtag #SBS. Six lucky businesses are re‐tweeted every Monday at 8 PM and then invited to enter their profile on the new website, attend the annual #SBS networking event and take advantage of the networking opportunities. ‐ Ends ‐ Full of Beans Fitness Ltd Full of Beans Fitness (Franchising) Ltd 2 Stonehey Drive, West Kirby, Wirral, CH49 2HS E : nicky@Fullofbeansfitness.co.uk M : 07914836797 W : www.fullofbeansfitness.co.uk T : @FullOfBeansFit FB : @FOBFit Insta : full_of_beans_wirral For further information about Small Business Sunday please visit www.theopaphitissbs.com .
