TThanks to National Lottery funding, China Spirit UK is currently able to offer FREE community sessions to local people.

These sessions are enjoyed by children from as young as 3 years old through to adults of all ages, bringing different generations together in a friendly and welcoming environment. They help people stay active, build confidence, learn new skills, make new friends and feel more connected to their local community.

This funding runs until the end of October 2026. After that, whether we are able to continue offering the sessions for free — and for how long — will depend on the donations we receive through our Pay It Forward collection.

Every little bit helps. A few pennies, a pound or two, or simply the spare change in your pocket can all add up and help us provide more free sessions for our community.

Our red Pay It Forward collection bucket is on the reception table at China Spirit UK.

If you don’t usually come to the centre but would still like to support the project, please email us at support@chinaspirit.org.uk and we can let you know how you can donate.

We will count the collection on 21st October and then announce whether the free sessions can be extended beyond October and, if so, for how long.

Please Pay It Forward if you can and help us keep these sessions accessible to our community.
