This March, the Wandsworth community is invited to experience the much-anticipated Wellness Weekender on the 21st and 22nd. This enriching event promises a weekend filled with free, engaging activities designed to inspire health and well-being in residents of all ages and abilities.
A Community-Centric Initiative

This initiative not only encourages more women and girls to engage in physical activity but also helps build confidence through shared experiences.
Meet the Beat Goes On Celebration
Coinciding with the Wellness Weekender is "The Beat Goes On" event at Battersea Power Station, a high-energy celebration that marks the conclusion of Wandsworth’s year as London Borough of Culture. This celebration promises to enhance the spirit of community and joy that the Wellness Weekender aims to promote.
