CITY PLAY TOGETHER USES FOOTBALL TO ENCOURAGE CHILDREN AGED 2-5 AND THEIR PARENTS TO LIVE A HEALTHY LIFESTYLE

City Play Together is a programme that uses the power of football and the brand of Manchester City Football Club to encourage children aged 2-5 and their parents, in Manchester, to live a healthy and active lifestyle from a young age.

The programme curriculum has been specifically designed to have a greater impact on not just physical and mental wellbeing of families, but also empower parents to embed a healthy lifestyle at home.

Sessions aim to develop skills, confidence and self-esteem when interacting with their child in any setting. City Play Together is delivered in Youth Zones and Sure Start Centres across Manchester, at no charge to participants.
