What is Moving Men's Minds? 

The Moving Men's Minds programme supports young males aged 15-19 who are at risk of violence & anti-social behaviour in Derbyshire. Alfreton Leisure Centre, Ripley Leisure Centre and William Gregg VC Leisure Centre are providing individuals with a free 3 month Premium membership to encourage individuals to have a more positive mindset as a result of participating in physical activity. Instructors will be leading fitness sessions at each site which will be bookable via the Places Leisure app or on our timetable.

  • Ripley Leisure Centre - Sundays 1.00pm - 2.00pm
  • William Gregg VC Leisure Centre - Fridays 5.00pm - 6.00pm
