Get Doncaster Moving

22/10/2026

As the days get shorter and the weather gets colder, keeping children active can become more of a challenge.

That's why we're supporting Let's Move!, a campaign from the Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport that helps families find simple, fun and affordable ways to be active together.

Research shows that:
🔹 57% of parents expect their children's activity levels to decline during autumn and winter
🔹 81% of parents underestimate how much physical activity children need, with only 14% aware that children should be active for at least 60 minutes every day
🔹 80% of parents say their own activity habits influence how active their child is

The good news? Being active doesn't have to mean joining a gym or spending lots of money. From kitchen discos and active games at home to exploring local parks and playgrounds, small moments of movement can make a big difference.

Let's help children and young people build healthy habits that last a lifetime. 💙

This is brilliant to see! 💜 We're delighted that the Keeping Active guides are helping to start conversations about staying active and the benefits of activities like bowling. Thanks for joining us at the Network Meeting, and congratulations to the Purple team on the win! 🎉

Having been to the Get Doncaster Moving Networking Event, it would have been rude not to avail ourselves of some of the free goodies. We are talking Yorkshire folk here!

So thank you Get Doncaster Moving for sponsoring our ‘Purple’ team at Thursday bowls. (We play with coloured lanyards so we know who is on who’s side).
It worked a treat, ‘cos the Purple team won both sets hands down!

The Keeping Active brochures were passed around during the break, perused, and discussed with regards to the health benefits of bowling.
And Adey was congratulated on his story that was covered in the Residents Story section.

We love this reminder from We Are Undefeatable. 💙 Living with a health condition can bring additional challenges when it comes to being active, but every journey is different. Whether it's 5 minutes in the garden, a walk with a friend, or taking part in a local activity, every bit of movement matters. Start where you are and celebrate the small wins.

It was a pleasure, as always, to support Right Up Our Street in delivering this fantastic weekend of art and activity across two of Doncaster's Future Parks sites.

The event provided a wonderful opportunity to showcase ongoing park improvements, hear directly from residents about their ideas and aspirations, and see these spaces transformed through creativity, collaboration and community spirit.

What a fantastic weekend! 🌳🙌

It was great to see so many people enjoying Pickle Park and Denaby Memorial Park, bringing communities together and making the most of these fantastic green spaces.

We loved chatting with local residents at our Pickle Park stand, sharing plans for the park's future and hearing their ideas for the space.

Thanks to everyone who stopped by, and to Right Up Our Street and all the partners involved for another brilliant community event! ✨🌳
