East Renfrewshire Culture and Leisure's programme offers a wide range of sports classes running across East Renfrewshire, including football, gymnastics, tennis, hockey and netball.
Art classes for both adults and kids also return in person for the first time since March 2020, with the programme of classes temporarily moving to Fairweather Hall in Newton Mearns while Eastwood Park hosts the vaccination centre.
Anthony McReavy from East Renfrewshire Culture and Leisure said: “It's great to see the return of our leisure classes, which boost our physical and mental health and wellbeing.
“Our sports coaches and tutors can't wait to welcome new faces along with previous participants to all of our leisure classes, with a range of indoor and outdoor activities available.
“You don't have to join the first week, if there are spaces available you can join the block booking for the remaining time.”
Outdoor classes available include athletics at Eastwood, Williamwood and Barrhead High schools, hockey and tennis at Eastwood High school, as well as football at various locations. Indoor classes include mini kickers, gymnastics and netball.
Art classes include Beginners and Mixed Ability Drawing and Painting and Watercolour classes, along with Arts and Crafts, Drawing and Painting techniques and Saturday Art schools for children and young people, delivered by experienced tutors.
Adult outdoor and indoor fitness classes can also be booked online. Booking information for all activities is available: www.ercultureandleisure.org.
