Be Great Fitness

We're proud to partner with Be Great Fitness, specialists in exercise and wellbeing for older adults. Through regular sessions in four of our care homes, they help residents stay active and enjoy the physical, mental and social benefits of movement.

Our partnership began at our Summer Sports Day in Retford last year, where they joined us alongside Apetito to deliver a fun and engaging day of activities for our residents, families and staff. Their energy and inclusive approach made a lasting impression, and what started as a one-day event has since grown into a valued partnership, with regular fortnightly sessions now taking place across four of our care homes.

More Than Exercise

The benefits of these sessions extend far beyond physical fitness. Exercise provides an opportunity for residents to socialise, build confidence and enjoy the experience together. For us it's not just about keeping active – it's about helping residents discover that exercise can be fun, with many who might not normally take part choosing to get involved.

Familiar Faces, Lasting Friendships

For many of our residents, Elly has become a familiar face. Through her regular visits, she has taken the time to build genuine relationships, getting to know each resident and understanding their individual abilities and personalities. That familiarity creates trust and confidence, helping residents feel comfortable joining in and making every session something they genuinely look forward to. She always takes a moment to chat with residents, getting to know them beyond the exercise sessions.

A Message from the Be Great Fitness Team

It's been a pleasure working with the Knights Care team. The staff are always welcoming, supportive, and genuinely committed to creating positive experiences for their residents. We've really enjoyed delivering fitness sessions across your homes and seeing the enthusiasm and engagement from residents. It's great to partner with an organisation that values health, wellbeing, and meaningful activities.

The Future

What began at our Summer Sports Day has grown into a valued partnership built on shared values and a commitment to improving residents' wellbeing. We look forward to continuing our work with Be Great Fitness and, in time, hope to bring their engaging sessions to all six of our care homes.
