Making Waves: DE23 Active Holds Derby's First Women-Only Waterpark Session!

On 5 October, our DE23 Active team proudly hosted their very first women-only water park session for their Women’s Group, which saw an incredible turnout of 138 participants.

 

The Women’s Group had exclusive access to the entire Moorways facility, ensuring they could fully enjoy the water park experience in a setting tailored to their needs, and removing barriers that have previously prevented women from the Muslim community from being able to participate.


To create a comfortable and secure atmosphere, it was arranged that only female staff and lifeguards were on duty, allowing the women to relax and have fun without any concerns. The success of this event reflects the growing demand for such physical activity sessions.

 

A huge thank you to Lauren and the awesome team at Everyone Active for the warm hospitality and to our DE23 Active volunteers who supported the team in bringing this event together — our ladies and their children had an unforgettable time!
