Meet Sadia. Our Pilates instructor, our powerhouse and an incredible example of what female empowerment looks like in action! 💜

She’s not just leading a Pilates session. She’s inspiring women to believe in their strength, push beyond their limits and invest in themselves.

For many of the women we work with, seeing someone they can relate to, someone who understands their background, culture and experiences, makes all the difference.

Representation matters. Role models matter. And women like Sadia are helping change what feels possible for others.

This is what Burton Unity is all about. Creating spaces where women don’t just participate — they grow, lead, inspire and empower one another. ✨

👏 Let’s hear it for Sadia!

THE ROOM WAS FULL. THE ENERGY WAS INCREDIBLE. AND THE MESSAGE WAS POWERFUL. 💜

We were delighted to welcome the Mayor Monica Holton, to our Burton Unity Pilates session.
What Monica walked into was perhaps not what she expected.

A room filled to the brim with women. Women showing up for themselves. Women prioritising their wellbeing. Women eager to move, learn, grow and take ownership of their health.

And this is exactly what we want people to see.

For too long, the conversation around health inequalities has focused on what women from underserved communities aren’t doing. But perhaps we need to start asking a different question.

Are women really hard to reach? Or have we simply not created the right spaces to reach them? Because when you remove the barriers, build trust, understand cultural needs and create spaces where women feel they belong,

THIS is what happens.

Rooms fill. Confidence grows. Women thrive.

This isn’t just a Pilates class. It’s prevention in action. It’s empowerment. It’s women recognising that their health matters and that they deserve the opportunity to invest in themselves.

A huge thank you to Mayor Monica Holton for taking the time to visit, meet our ladies and witness the incredible community we are building.

The demand is there. The women are ready. The opportunities must follow. 💜

Beautiful autumn colours, crisp fresh air and a wonderful day exploring Biddulph Grange with our families! 🍁

Getting outdoors is about so much more than a walk. It’s about creating opportunities, breaking down barriers and making sure everyone feels they belong. 💛

Access to beautiful green spaces, new experiences and opportunities to explore shouldn’t be something only some families get to enjoy.

A huge thank you to National Trust for helping make these experiences possible and opening up opportunities for more families to enjoy the outdoors.

The outdoors is for everyone. And everyone deserves to feel they belong.

Belonging

A moment to breathe. A moment to explore. A moment to self-reflect.
 A moment to take in the beauty of nature around us. 🌿

This is what the outdoors gives us — exactly what we need: space to slow down, reconnect, move our bodies and simply be present.

Such a beautiful day with our Burton Unity community at Biddulph Grange 💚🥾

Breaking barriers. Amplifying voices. Creating belonging.

This is Burton Unity. This is what genuine inclusion looks like.

✨ CALORIES & BMR – Understanding What Your Body Needs

Do you know how many calories your body actually needs each day? 🤔

We hear so much about calories, diets and healthy eating, but how much do we really understand about what our bodies need?

This first session is all about understanding our bodies, making informed choices and building the knowledge to support healthier lifestyles.

🍎 What will we explore? ✅ What are calories, and why do we need them? ✅ What is BMR (Basal Metabolic Rate)? ✅ What’s the difference between BMR and our daily calorie needs? ✅ Why do nutritional needs differ between women, men and children?

📅 Friday 6th November 2026 ⏰ 10:30am 📍 Queen Street Community Centre, DE14 3LW

🌸 Whether you’re looking to improve your eating habits, understand nutrition better or make healthier choices for yourself and your family, we’d love for you to join us!
