Help Tots Tennis Club return to business as usual
London, England, United Kingdom
Aim
Preschool children's physical activity & development has been hugely impacted by COVID. Help us to get children active again through tennis.
The effect of the pandemic on children's sport and activity providers has been huge. But the consequences to the physical development of very young children without access to sport and exercise will be much greater. Tots Tennis Club provides a fun and engaging way for children ages 2 to 4 to develop agility, balance and coordination through play.
How the pandemic has impacted us
Tots Tennis Club classes have been unable to run during each national lockdown. And even when classes have been permitted, the impact has been severe:
- class sizes have been reduced to keep them COVID safe
- class venues haven't reopened - we are running half as many classes as we used to
- costs have increased to provide PPE and a safe learning enviroment
Despite the difficulties that we and every other business has faced, we continue to run classes whenever we can. Throughout the pandemic I also provided free online video activities and delivered tennis activity packs throughout south east London.
What's next?
Now that the nation is hopefully returning to normal, we need your help to get Tots Tennis Club back to providing physical activity, sport and exercise to as many young pre-school children as possible.
