Mature movers are a dance-based class for people aged 50+ and who want to stay fit and healthy for another half a century and is a great way to stay fit and healthy, meet new people and have fun!
The class is made up of low impact aerobic routines such as salsa and grapevine; there are no chair-based exercises.
The classes benefit participants physically, mentally and socially. No matter what range of movement participants have or their level of fitness, the class content is adapted to suit individual needs and provide enjoyment. Music and movement combinations stimulate the mind as well as the body being kept active throughout the session.
Classes take place at various venues across the town, including St Thomas', Stockton Heath and Hood Manor, Great Sankey. Contact the Wolves Foundation to find your nearest class.

We currently have Chaplains at Local Solutions, Liverpool John Lennon Airport, Clayton Square Shopping Centre, Church Street and St. John’s Market in Liverpool; Birchwood Business Park, Golden Square and the Market in Warrington and St Helen’s Town Centre.

New Directions is a service that works with adults who have come to the attention of the police and appear to be vulnerable and in need of support.

We help adults who have mental health difficulties and other unmet needs such as social isolation, housing problems, financial difficulties or substance misuse issues.

The people we support may be victims of crime, people who have committed an offence or perceived to be at risk of offending.

Working closely with partners, such as the police and local housing authorities, New Directions aims to improve the health and wellbeing of individuals who have very real needs, but who have slipped through the net of services.

Newchurch Parish Hall is owned by an educational charity, set up in 1935. The Charity is responsible for maintaining the Hall, but it has no endowments, so it is dependent on the income from lettings to keep the doors open.

It is used by a wide variety of local organisations, including a Pre-School, mother and toddler groups, the Guides, Brownies and Rainbows, dancing classes for both adults and children, a Craft Group, Karate classes, the local Women's Institutes and the local Parish Church. It is a popular venue for children's parties and Dog Shows.

NWESSR has been in existence for over 25 years. During this time, homes have been found for hundreds of Springer waifs and strays. The work of the charity is forever ongoing.

There are many reasons why a dog finds its way into the care of NWESSR:

Some are made homeless due to an owners death or illness.
There are always strays who do not have any form of identification; wherever possible we try to unite lost dogs with their families but sadly this cannot always be the case and they are found new homes.
Others are given up because of various domestic crises or they are not wanted any more, perhaps because of long term illness and expense – veterinary bills can be considerable.
Some will come from situations where the owner finds they cannot cope with what is a very energetic breed; Springers look cute, especially when they are puppies, but they can be hard work!
Most distressing are the cases of physical cruelty and neglect – traumatised dogs are homed with people who are very experienced with the breed. Have the time, the patience and the understanding, to undo the damage caused by ignorance and irresponsibility.
Whatever the reason NWESSR is here to help.

Considerable care is taken in placing dogs. Families with children under 6yrs will not be offered dogs at all. Families with young children, will not be offered dogs, whose temperament is unknown or questionable. Fortunately, many of our dogs are happy-go-lucky and good natured. Perhaps one of them is just the right companion for you.

NWESSR is recognised by the Kennel Club and is listed in the Kennel Club Rescue Directory.

NWESSR is a registered charity, and this assists in raising much needed funds to continue our work. The spiralling costs of kennelling , veterinary care and specialist training are an ever present concern to us.
