Teviot Centre Timetable of Activities from September 2024
The Teviot Centre
At LiC, key members of our staff are from the Teviot Estate. Their lived local realities and co-design experience gives LiC the unique advantage of creating and delivering services at the Teviot Centre that meet the needs of local people. Over the years, we have been able to put on a range of free weekly activities catering for everyone in the community.
Health, Fitness and Wellbeing
LiC successfully partnered with Nuffield Health to deliver fitness sessions for young women, Teviot Sisters/Wen for Mindfulness Yoga, Active Brothers for Men’s Fitness and TAG Fit & Feisty Over 50s exercise. To equip and strengthen young people’s self-defence and discipline skills we provide martial arts sessions. For mental, emotional health and well-being, we run a number of classes.
Training, Skills and Learning
From digital skills to money guidance with Clean Slate to ESOL, Arabic and Qu’ran classes with the Teviot Sisters to even learning how to ride a bike, we cater for adults as well as children and young people with Unity homework club and tuition sessions too.
Youth Support and Development
At LiC, the Teviot Centre enables us to deliver some of our flagship youth programmes for the community in the community. For example, LiC’s Be.Inspired Women’s Leadership; Be.Green:Eco-Social Action. In partnership with West Ham FC football coaching, Spotlight Skateboarding and as part of our Summer Holiday programme Mayor of London Violence Reduction Unit Partner Business Launchpad, Digital Skills courses and The Safety Box for Self Defence.
Social Events
From quiz night to bingo LiC has been at the heart of bringing the community together for fun and laughter. We have celebrated birthdays, hosted tea parties and made an occasion of our flagship Beekeeping Programme by celebrating the annual honey harvest. The culmination of our students’ hard work. From educational talks on nutrition and organic food to cooking sessions, we have been at the epicentre of the ‘Be Well, Eat Well campaign.’
